Since this script will only be run on Mac OS X there's no point 
in using the "env" command. Just hardcode the path to Bash.

Don't patch dmd.conf. Change the makefile to do the right thing 
from the beginning.

Not all of these tools are currently shipped with DMD. Don't know 
if we want to include all of these. We should probably start a 
new post about it.

Don't remove the whole directory like that. Explicitly remove all 
files the installer put there and then remove the directory if 
it's empty. The user could have placed some own files in that 
directory. It happened with the latest Windows installer 
resulting in some angry posts.

You're not using the dmd2.pmdoc file or corresponding. That will 
result in missing readme, licenses and other information.
