Comment(by GeorgSWeber):

 The thread http://lists.apple.com/archives/unix-
 porting/2006/Aug/msg00022.html started years ago by Justin C. Walker on
 how to build Singular on OS X (for Sage!) brought some more insights.

 If one uses "g++ -dynamiclib ..." instead of "libtool -dynamic ..." (note
 the "lib" at the ending of "-dynamiclib", this seems to superspecial for
 g++ instead of just gcc on Mac OS X) to build libsingular.dylib, then
 together with the changes I already wrote in #6470, the modified 3.1.0.4
 singular spkg from #6362 (as included in Sage-4.1.rc0) seems finally to
 (build and also to) work on OS X.

 But one not only needs to adapt "src.Singular.Makefile.in" which is
 already in the patch directory, but also add some "src.Singular.config.in"
 there and even "src.Singular.config" because although the Makefile is
 created from Makefile.in in the install process, config is *not* updated
 from config.in. This will take some more time, and testing also for the
 PPC Darwin target. I see if can do that soon and upload a new spkg for
 review, but probably not in the next days.
