bindist for Intel MacOS X 10.4 (Tiger) with static libs

[Christian Maeder]

Hi,

I've succeeded in building a binary distribution that uses static
libraries for gmp and readline. libreadline.a, libncurses.a and libgmp.a
with corresponding header files are included. (For license issues ask
someone else.) Linking is done using the flag -search_paths_first.

Frameworks or dylibs for gmp or readline are no longer required and are
not used when linking binaries.

Other static libraries are compatible with those from

(in fact HSreadline-1.0.1.0 was created this way)

Cheers Christian

P.S. ranlib during installation is actually not needed on Intel Macs
(only for PPC)
