[Ohrrpgce] Mac builds and SDL frameworks

[Ralph Versteegen]

You found reports of people failing to build a statically linked oggenc on
Mac? I think I probably did it using macports.
I'm also reminded that I was interested in setting up a cross-compiling
toolchain to compile for Mac. I might still try it.

But if we don't have oggenc, then that is what we'll have to do.

Could you also please install a 32-bit Euphoria?
