[HarfBuzz] Compiling harfbuzz-ng under Mac OS 10.6

[Deron Kazmaier]

Well, I got this to compile by simply compiling all the .c and .cc files
except the ICU and glib files. From what I can tell, these two are
conditional dependencies. Since glib is not found, it complains (several
times) on each file that the library won't be thread safe. I can live
with that right now :-) What other disadvantages to not having ICU or
glib? Looks like no memory mapped without glib?

So unless I can help improve the autoconf tools by testing/reporting
issues I am having, I'm going to try and write some test code and digest
the API. Is pango's basic-fc.c still the best (only?) "documentation" in
this, short of the actual code itself?

Thanks again,

Deron
