wxwidgets issue with 10.7 sdk (XCode 4.4)

[anddam (Andrea D'Amore)]

About #35372 and its duplicates I suggest to notify the user and halt port parsing rather than failing at build.

This affects Lion systems as well since Xcode 4.4 can be installed on those.

Patch attached

wxWidgets-devel is not a viable option (Cocoa version is buggy, and requires source code modifications). Rather that not being able to install with some Xcode version, it would be better to check for the presence of the SDK. Here's what I do on Mountain Lion (BTW, the Portfile doesn't seem to handle Mountain Lion at all, since there's no darwin 12 section):

platform darwin 12 {
	pre-fetch {
		if {![file exists ${developer_dir}/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.6.sdk]} {
			return -code error "\n********************\n${name} requires Mac OS X 10.6 SDK, please get it from XCode 3.2.6\n********************"
		}
	}
    configure.args-append \
        --with-macosx-version-min=10.6 \
        --with-macosx-sdk=${developer_dir}/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.6.sdk
}

The SDKs, and other legacy components, can be extracted from Xcode 3.2.6, and installed on XCode >= 4.2, with the attached "XcodeLegacy.sh" script.

updated the script, and made it available on ​http://devernay.free.fr/hacks/xcodelegacy/

Ok, if you need it, you are free to modify your own copy, but as this is not a supported development environment, it will not be applied.
