In my opinion we have been skating on thin ice for a long time with
Mac OS X because of our lack of testing on that platform so your tests of
that platform would be answering an important need.

branch that I have been making changes with?

Please test the master branch at least to start with.

For that branch I suggest the most convenient thing to do from your
perspective is simply to run the scripts/comprehensive_test.sh script.
I have just created some documentation for that script in the
Comprehensive Testing section of
<http://sourceforge.net/p/plplot/wiki/Testing_PLplot> which should
be of help to you.

Good luck, and let us know how your Mac OS X platform testing work
goes.
