[m-dev.] MAC OS X Success!

[Terrence Brannon]

I would try to be witty and write a Mercury program who interpretation
says I succeeded in compiling Mercury, but I am not that good yet.

-- I did have to go an run ranlib on several libraries after typing make
install_main though. 

-- also, hello_world (from rbeck's excellent tutorial) comes out as a
   3 megabyte file! just to say hello. My guess is that this size
   remains relatively constant even as programs grow much larger...
