Speaking as the maintainer, I don't have any real experience dealing with OSX,
especially for development. I'm happy to have kconfig_compiler end up where
ever such tools are normally placed in OSX. I'll gladly follow any advice

I'd consider kconfig_compiler a developer tool, similar to Google's protocol
buffer compiler. Where do such tools belong in the OSX world?
