It won't do the trick of making macosx-setup.sh work, as that must be run 
before you can, on newer versions of OS X, even *generate* the configure script 
from configure.ac, much less *run* the configure script.  Anders was having a 
problem with macosx-setup.sh building Qt.

So something needs to be done in macosx-setup.sh.

The "-p" flag is a later addition - Xcode 3 didn't have it:

        snowleopard.local$ xcodebuild -version
        Xcode 3.2.6
        Component versions: DevToolsCore-1809.0; DevToolsSupport-1806.0
        BuildVersion: 10M2518
        snowleopard.local$ xcode-select -p
        Usage: xcode-select -print-path
           or: xcode-select -switch <xcode_folder_path>
           or: xcode-select -version
        Arguments:
           -print-path                     Prints the path of the current Xcode 
folder
           -switch <xcode_folder_path>     Sets the path for the current Xcode 
folder
           -version                        Prints xcode-select version 
information

so what should be used is --print-path, not -p - --print-path, with two leading 
"-"s, works in Xcode 3.2.6 (and -print-path, with only one leading -, works in 
Xcode 6.1.1, but I'm less tempted to assume that will continue to work in the 
future).

However, on Xcode 3.2.6 again:

        snowleopard.local$ ls `xcode-select 
--print-path`/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs
        ls: /Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs: No such file 
or directory

so that's not enough:

        snowleopard.local$ ls /Developer/SDKs
        MacOSX10.5.sdk  MacOSX10.6.sdk

On Xcode 6.1.1 on Yosemite, we have:

        yosemite.local$ xcrun --show-sdk-platform-path
        /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform

but on 3.2.6 on Snow Leopard:

        snowleopard.local$ xcrun --show-sdk-platform-path
        xcrun: error: unrecognized option: --show-sdk-platform-path

        usage: 
        xcrun [-verbose] [-no-cache] [-kill-cache] [-sdk <sdkroot>] [-log] 
[-run] <utility> [utility argument(s) ...]
        xcrun [-verbose] [-no-cache] [-kill-cache] [-sdk <sdkroot>] -find 
<utility> <tool> [tool arguments ...]

And, if we also want to support installing just the command-line tools, you 
also have to look in /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs; however, I think 
Qt refuses to install if you don't have Xcode installed - the command-line 
tools aren't sufficient.
