Hi Wayne,

One person on IRC is compiling with the patch to test on OSX.  Currently the 
files on OSX should go in ~/Library/Preferences/kicad, but from what he said and 
also from these links, it looks like that might should be changed to 
~/Library/Application Support/kicad.  I did figure out an easy way to make the 
change if it is decided that is better.

The install_****_fp-lib-table cmake stuff is in the kicad library repository, 
looks like under the template directory.
