1) No, this is not a macOS issue.  It's an issue with installing libgcrypt or 
GeoIP's headers in a location that's not searched by default, e.g. in something 
under /opt rather than in /usr/local/include.  It would occur on *any* UN*X 
platform where those headers aren't in /usr/include or /usr/local/include or 
some other directory that the compiler searches by default.

2) The issue with gcrypt.h should be fixed by commit 
9e4c018e08d5a657f85f0cde0607db0a6d25ddf4 and the issue with GeoIP.h should be 
fixed by commit 2c52d954d5713be1b809c3b668b0353d2b355c16, so there should be no 
need to use CMake to compile on macOS *even with headers not installed in 
/usr/local/include* (and, if not, that should be submitted as a bug, so we can 
fix it).

So, no, this does not belong in README.macos.
