Well, of course not: you don't have the whole icu package properly
installed, you seem to have random remnants of a MacPorts installation
of icu that you apparently only halfway removed. /opt/local doesn't
exist in a standard MacOS X installation, so what you've got there
Now the question is. Do I actually need SMTPUTF8 support? Probably not
really so I disabled it in main.cf
I just like to have things built that don’t show up warnings like
that.
"warning: smtputf8_enable is true, but EAI support is not compiled
in”
As there appears to be no way of getting it to compile in, I can
reasonably forget it.
If you are interested this is where I keep my Make list.

That hostname has a CNAME record pointing to a name does not resolve.
Maybe you should install BIND as well, or get a competent DNS provider
:)
and if someone who knows OSX 10.11 knows where a suitable library is
that I can use, please let me know.
You need to install icu properly to get the icu components that Postfix
needs. It's really that simple.
If you want an example of a working Postfix smtputf8 build, you can look
at what MacPorts does: there is a working smtputf8 variant.
