OS X Externals

[Frank D. Engel, Jr.]

Thank you everyone who looked at this for me, I finally convinced 
myself that this is a bug in Rev and filed it in Bugzilla (#2308).

I did manage to build by external under Windows, but have not tested 
the faulty routine there yet.  I suspect (from the below report) that 
it is a Mac-specific bug, so until Rev gets this fixed, I will just 
have to use the slow Transcript version, at least for the Mac.  I will 
test under Windows later, and if the external works there, I'll attach 
a note to the bug report that it is OS X specific and then use the 
external for Windows at least, both when it is fixed.
