I'm going through and removing old and deprecated information from the 
source tree.

I'm noticing that there are two makefiles for OS-X, one at ./make.osx 
and one in release/osx/Makefile.  The former was updated in Sep 2010, 
the latter in Mar 2010.  Our installation (installing.rst) recommends 
using the one in release/osx.

Also, the README.txt at the root of the source tree seems to be related 
to the Mac OS-X binary installer.  We should probably move this 
elsewhere and put generic information in this file.

I'm not actually trying to build on OS-X, I haven't in many years, and I 
haven't really followed any of the mailing list threads on this topic -- 
so maybe that makes me a good example of a user coming to this blind and 
saying: "hey, there's two ways to do it, which is the right one?"
