[ODE] Building on MacOSX (and now Linux)

[Rodrigo Hernandez]

Alright then,

obviously the first thing that pops up to me is that the bash script 
doesnt seem to have the right path set for certain tools,
maybe it is a thing of permisions, I am not sure, perhaps someone else 
can help there.
if autogen fails you will get a useless configure script and 'make 
configure' is the old way of doing things, which is why you're getthing
the same results as before.

Cheers!
