Enhanced Mac build instructions

Mac builds require  that Qt be built from sources  since the binary Qt
package is built  against the clang libstdc++ C++  support library and
we need it built against the more modern libc++ C++ support library.

Qt
The easiest way to obtain Qt is to use the latest qt-project.org on
line installer DMG for Mac OS X which should be here:
http://www.qt.io/download . You need the "Community" edition.
Qt
--
The binary Qt distributions from http://www.qt.io/download
unfortunately are built to use the libstdc++ C++ support library,
WSJT-X uses a less geriatric C++ dialet which uses the libc++ C++
support library. This means that you need to build Qt from
sources. This is not difficult but does take some time.
Download the Qt source tar ball from
http://www.qt.io/download-open-source/, the link is about half way
down the page, you want the full sources tar ball shown as a 'tar.gz'
link.
Unpack the sources and cd into the top level directory then type:
$ ./configure -prefix ~/local/qt-macx-clang -opensource \
-confirm-license -platform macx-clang -silent -nomake tests \
-nomake examples -sdk macosx10.10 -skip qtwebkit \
-skip qtwebkit-examples -skip qtquick1 -skip qtconnectivity \
-skip qtlocation -skip qtsensors -skip qtscript -skip qtserialport \
-skip qtwebsockets -skip qtwebengine -skip qtwebchannel \
-skip qtwayland -skip qtquickcontrols -skip qtdeclarative \
-skip qtxmlpatterns -skip qtenginio
$ make -j4
$ make install
If you are building on 10.8 or don't have the 10.10 Mac SDK (Xcode 6)
available, you can substitute '-sdk macosx10.9' above.
The build above will take a few hours to complete.
CMake
-----
Although CMake is available via MacPorts I prefer to use the binary
installer from cake.org as the MacPorts port doesn't include the
graphical CMake tool cmake-gui which I find quite useful.
