Hello All OS X users/builders,

I succeeded building KiCad for OS X,
using modified instructions from Bernhard.

First, I had a hard time to build wxwidgets, but that’s in the past.

The KiCad build completed with BZR5162, but pcbnew crashes on start.

I have not yet tried with BZR5164. I will let you know when I build 5164.
