[Ohrrpgce] Mac builds and SDL frameworks

[James Paige]

I found reports of people saying it couldn't be done (static oggenc on Mac
that is) and one of somebody explaining that the reason it couldn't be done
is because of a bug that Apple had "wontfixed" years ago. I was assuming
they were talking about xcode . I didn't read any deeper

I'll try to get 32 bit euphoria installed soon. Not sure if it will be
today.
