Hmm.

In the Windows VC nmake file, we have rules to download the binary packages of 
the support libraries.

Should we supply your setup script, and perhaps a setup rule in Makefile.am, 
for OS X?

(Any other UN*Xes for which we should do that?  For most Linux distributions 
you can probably just install packages for the various required and optional 
support libraries, including the developer packages, but I suspect trying to 
enumerate the right packages for particular releases of particular 
distributions would be too much work.  *BSD might be similar, with their 
various ports/packages databases.  That leaves the usual commercial-UNIX 
suspects - Solaris, HP-UX, AIX, and various end-of-lifed UN*Xes such as Tru64 
UNIX.)
