It would be good to remove xcodebuild's usage since all lion machines
(and maybe earlier too) have the command, even without xcode
installed. This has become important now that the apple command line
tools are separate from xcode.

Try building on sqrt5 -- xcode is not installed there, instead I've
installed the command line tools from apple's developer website.
