Yes, bundling those packages should be pretty easy. Joerg pointed out
to me privately that libpng and a few others should now fall back to
OS X's preinstalled versions, so the script may need updating..I'm not
sure what else OS X provides off hand.

Of course, those dependencies may conflict with installed software,
but without a mac, I can't tell for sure.
