Hi,

I have simplified the build procedure for MacVim somewhat and I'll
update the Building wiki soon.  Until then, this is how to build
MacVim:

  1. git pull
  2. ./configure
  3. make

No need for "--with-gui=macvim" (it is chosen by default), no need to
"xcodebuild" (it is called from the Makefile).  The resulting app
bundle will be in the usual place (src/MacVim/build/Release).

The default is to build for the native architecture.  This means:

  * 10.4/10.5: 32 bit PPC or Intel (depending on which processor you have)
  * 10.6: 64 bit Intel

To build a universal binary (with more than one architecture), or e.g.
force 32 bit on 10.6, you'll have to use the "--with-macarchs" flag
(note: it is plural now, it used to be "--with-mac-arch").  For
example:

  ./configure --with-macarchs="i386 x86_64"
  ./configure --with-macarchs=i386

The default is to build using the "current" SDK version.  This can be
changed by using the "--with-macsdk" flag:

  ./configure --with-macsdk=10.5

(You'll want to use that one on 10.6 to get 'transp' to work at the
moment.)  There are limitations on the use of this flag -- I can not
get it to work with "10.4" for instance, but I don't think many people
will be interested in this flag anyway (my main motivation for adding
it was so that I can build snapshots easily).
