[Scribus] Success: compile Mac/Aqua from CVS without patches

Hi!

Thanks to Craig R.'s  recent changes Scribus now compiles straight
from CVS on Mac/Aqua.
Only one tiny patch is needed in pluginmanager.cpp l. 351:
-	return "so";
+	return "la";


Here's what to do:

0. Install Qt/Mac (not the X version!)
1. make -f Makefile.cvs
2. CPPFLAGS=-I/sw/lib LDFLAGS=-L/sw/lib export CPPFLAGS LDFLAGS
3. ./configure --enable-mac --enable-debug ---prefix=/usr/local  \
	--with-extra-libs=/sw/lib --with-extra-includes=/sw/include \
	--with-pythondir=/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/ 
2.3/

** --enable-debug is mandatory since ld chokes on '-s' when linking  
modules
** either CPP/LDFLAGS or --extra-include/libs might be superflous but I  
didn't try that

4. make
5. sudo make install
6. unpack the Scribus.app skeleton
7. copy scribus/scribus to Scribus.app/Contents/MacOS/
8. open Scribus.app

:-)

Some caveats:
* some dialogs don't have a close button, ESC usually works though
* Preview shows wrong colors for images
* some fonts might not work
* <fill in yourself>
