[Xastir] Mac OSX errors

[Nikita Bogdanov]

I tried using the binary version after trying the MacPorts route, which 
consisted of installing the dependencies (except for lib db45), but still had 
the same behavior of an immediate closure after trying to open Xastir. So in the 
case of OS X 10.6.4 (which is what I am running), having the dependencies does 
not seem to help the binary version work.

I think the trick to using the binary is having all the dependencies
installed on the mac to begin with.

Don't know that for sure, but it seems to sure help.
