Ok, I *TOTALLY DON'T LIKE* how this patch works (far too much "worse is 
better" unix style), but it's not my program.


The patch adds an --enable-macosx-bundle switch to configure, whose 
default is 'auto', which follows the state of the 
--enable-macosx-finder-support switch.

it also changes the get_path() function in getpath.c:
In order to retain the support for configuration files in the user's 
home directory, the patched get_path() function explicitly checks for 
the existence of the file in the user directory. If it is not found, 
the path inside the application bundle is returned.
