My build cluster can build from 10.7+.
My personal dev machine can only build for 10.9+. The tricks I was
doing to build for 10.7 appear to not work with the newest Xcode.
If Apple is no longer supporting 10.7, I do not see why we should
either. I am fine moving to 10.8+.
Before making a change, I need agreement from Wayne, Bernhard, Andy,
and the other Mac folks, or at least non-disagreement. :)

Hi Adam,
do you still have issues with your builds? I only had one minor
glitch today while doing a test build of r5668 to check out Orsons
latest OSX fixes.
At first, I had forgotten to set KICAD_SKIP_BOOST as I usually do
since I have boost installed via Homebrew. So boost 1.54 got
compiled during building. However, the final application was
nonetheless linked against my Homebrew boost, causing an immediate
crash of Pcbnew. I spotted the error as the version information
dialog said “Boost 1.58”, so I tried rebuilding with
KICAD_SKIP_BOOST, and everything was fine. (The test build was
without scripting support. I am not sure if your build issues were
only with scripting activated? I could try that again tomorrow.).
I can only speak for the 10.10 people, as I don’t have machines
running lower versions anymore. But perhaps it is necessary to
increase the minimum OSX version to 10.8 in the near future.
According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mac_OS_X_Lion , 10.7 is
officially (?) “Unsupported as of about October 2014”. I have seen
that other popular open source software (e.g. LibreOffice) already
ship only for 10.8+. And, I just looked up my SDK directory inside
XCode (which also got updated today), it only contains SDKs for
10.9 and 10.10…
I could offer to do a clean rebuild with most of your settings
(except for 10.9 instead of 10.7) tomorrow to see if it finishes.
But I have no means to test the build on a 10.9 machine.
Best,
Johannes

and it's very concerning to me. I'll try 10.9 and 10.8. For a
year or so now, XCode no longer includes the 10.7 sysroot, and I
have to copy from an older XCode. It is possible changes in the
latest XCode make that not a valid workaround.

(build-wxpython.py) had some issues with the target version
parameter or didn’t support it at all… that’s why I didn’t use it
in my osx_build_wx.sh, but manually compiled wxWIdgets/wxPython in
two steps…

have both 10.10 and 10.9 machines). I don’t use homebrew or any
other package manager; the various dependencies are compiled from
the latest source at the time I grabbed them. Latest Xcode on
both. Seems to be OK.
