[Ifeffit] Building ifeffit Mac Mountain Lion

[Matt Newville]

Hi Jeff,

Hope it's OK, but I'm CCing this to the ifeffit mailing list.     I've
officially abandoned support for the Fortran version of Ifeffit, but I
know many people are still using it, so I'll try to give some
pointers.   I haven't tried building on 10.8 (but Larch works fine for
me on it).

I think the last version of Ifeffi, from
https://github.com/newville/ifeffit should work, at least to compile
PGPLOT correctly.    I've put most of the code I used to build Ifeffit
on Mac OSX in the src/macosx directory on this repository:
     https://github.com/newville/ifeffit/tree/master/src/macosx

Though, of course this makes many assumptions (such as, that gfortran
and XCode are installed), and I really can't offer any support for
these scripts and codes.

Hope that helps,
