I've gone ahead and pushed the above. We can still fix to use build_os
internally instead of mac_os_x, but that's fairly cosmetic.

I also pushed out my own version of the fix for FINAL_NOTMUCH_LDFLAGS,
(which does the extra linking on OS X, but not Linux).

Please, anyone that's interested, test notmuch on your favorite
platforms and let us know what's still broken. I did do a little testing
and research with the OS X machine I could find here, but I'm no expert,
nor do I have access to many other systems.
