Bug Description

Building the game on Mac OS X should not use Xcode, due to its poor backwards compatibility.

Another issue: Xcode 4 dropped support for the 10.5 SDK. Universal builds, and builds supporting older versions of Mac OS X are more difficult to create if you're using a newer OS.

Still left todo:

* Automate building the game for each arch and using lipo to create a universal binary.
    * Need to merge Info.plist LSMinimumSystemVersion into LSMinimumSystemVersionByArchitecture
* Automate creating a .dmg or .tgz for releases.
