[augeas-devel] Augeas on OSX

[Rizwan Kassim]

I've been looking at getting Augeas to build on OSX. It's not a tough
task, just some script changes and some sussing out of different OSX
library methods that I'm not familiar with. Right now I'm hung up on
errors requiring argz.h, will try to look at those later this week.

I do have a patch to autogen.sh
