there is a platform specific text backend for Mac OS, but it is possible
that it uses something that has become deprecated/removed in recent
versions.

quite possible, but I don't know if anything special is needed on Mac OS.

ok.

take a look at CommonConf/commonTEXT.in, it looks as if that assembles
the compiler/linker options to use FT2 and for darwin it simply clears
out the variables so that it is skipped. I'm mostly guessing here
though, I never looked into the details of the autoconf based build.

hm, not sure if that can work...
