Haven't noticed any Mac OS X testers report in, so I figured I'd better
spend the day getting you something.

Not totally finished, but wanted to give you an almost complete report of
where I am through steps #1-6, 8 & a bit of 7.

Running Mac OS X 10.5.8 on an iMac G5 (PPC).  I know I need to buy an Intel
Mac, just haven't decided which one I want next.

1) Install went without a hitch.

2-4) -C, --update & --versioncheck all went fine.

5) --propupd went well, which is a change from the previous versions where I
had to use STAT_CMD=BUILTIN to get it to do anything.  Not sure it picked up
changes as I didn't really have a baseline to compare it to.

6) --enable all completed with the following warnings:

Most of the warnings and skips I recognize from previous versions, but I
will have to give them some additional analysis.

7) I forgot to remove rkhunter.conf.local the first time I tried everything,
so I do know that whitelisting worked for the 'sshd_config' file found
above.  If I get time I'll try some other items.  You've fixed a couple of
things that I previously worked around with rkhunter.conf.local so I'll need
to re-edit it.

8) -c --sk ran with seemingly identical results.

9) You previously told us that RKH does not support any package manager for
OSX, so I'm guessing I can ignore this one.

I've got some thoughts, but I'll save them for a separate email and if I run
into any further issues I'll be back.
