Subject: [PATCH] Add readme file for MacOSX package

There are a couple of gothas on MacOSX involving GateKeeper on
Mountain Lion, and dialogues that sometimes doesn't pop up.  This
file explains that.  The file should be included in the DMG, but that's
for a different commit.

+Security Preferences
+--------------------
+
+If you get "Subsurface can't be opened because it is from an unidentified
+developer" or "Subsurface can't be opened because it was not downloaded
+from the Mac App Store.", you need to change your security preferences.
+
+Go to System Preferences » Security & Privacy » General and set
+Allow applications downloaded from » Anywhere
+
+Missing dialogues
+-----------------
+
+There's a bug that sometimes prevents dialogues from popping up.  The 
+workaround for this is to move the mouse pointer.
