Building lirc on Mac OS X?

[TJ H. <tjh...@we...>]

Are there any guides on building lircd (0.8.5) in Mac OS X?

I am trying to build lircd to receive IR commands from a HDHomeRun
tuner via UDP, but my attempts at building in Mac OS X haven't gotten
me very far.
I see in the changelog that there are comments about compiling in Mac
OS.  Is there some trick to get this to work?
