Just a note -- since the XCode tools are free, high quality, and supported, 
Linden Lab is unlikely to put any significant prioritization into making other 
toolsets work on the mac. If someone else wants to add such support without 
breaking what we have, then we won't gratuitously break it, but we're probably 
never going to test it.
