Comment (by mgoerner):

 I tried it out on Mac OS X 10.11.3 and it works like a charm.

 The Makefile has (almost) not a single comment in it and at least I would
 find it helpful if it had comments about
 - what it is basically for: it is producing a dmg containing the Sage App,
 to be called directly with make and after sage itself has already been
 build with make at the root
 - the relocability of the resulting App (as far as I understand, the path
 where we compiled sage needs to be longer than the relocation target?)
 - whether the binaries compiled previously by calling make at the root are
 suitable for distribution to older processors which might not have all the
 capabilities of the host machine
 - maybe a line explaining the $(APP) target
