My OS X build is using the externals directory instead of package manager 
libraries so that I can distribute copies to users who have nothing but a stock 
OS. I'm linking against static libraries where possible/permitted, and am 
providing side-by-side dylibs for the rest.

As long as the build process respects THIRD_PARTY_TOOLS_HOME, I'll be fine.
