The instructions for building dmd and Phobos on OSX
(http://dlang.org/dmd-osx.html) say to use the makefile "osx.mak".  This file
doesn't exist anywhere.  Using "posix.mak" instead seems to work for Phobos.

In the dmd instructions, there are more problems.  The instructions currently
are:

cd ~/dmd2/src/dmd
make -f osx.mak

In the dmd source tree, src/dmd is an executable, not a directory.  Running
make -f posix.mak doesn't do anything.  There is an Xcode project in the top
level directory that does the make -f posix.mak and doesn't produce a binary.

Running:

$ cd dmd/src
$ make -f posix.mak

Does work and produces and executable. The Xcode project also produces an
executable, at least for me. The executable will be located at dmd/src/dmd.

So.. I forgot to run make clean before trying to build just before I filed the
bug, then I mistook the "Nothing to do, because it's done" message for "Don't
know what to do".  So that part works.  Sorry about that.
