building bitcoin qt OSX

[pineapples]

i 've been building various wallets using .pro files and qtcreator.
and have used the autogen.sh process for compiling coinds.

but how do i go about building the newer clients on OSX ?

looking at latest bitcoin source i have no idea how to start
i assume it's possible not using gitian

great
latest btc source is smooth sailling to compile.
and brew is pretty smooth too (previously used macports)

now i'm building an older autogen using btc 0.9.3 codebase

i had a bit of messing around with compiling qt4.8.6 to a custom directory, have compiled ok but now having troubles with the deploy step.

make deploy
Error: Could not import appscript which is required for fancy disk images.
Please install it e.g. with "sudo easy_install appscript"

now appscript seems dead
i seem to recall getting around this a while ago with osascript but i cannot recall how

going to have another attempt at working around requirement for appscript tomorrow.
if anyone can suggest a way to deploy the .app would be much appreciated

Out of all the systems that ive compiled for osx has been the biggest pain in the ass. Wish i could cross compile or rent a rig or something lol.
