[Fluxus] fluxus in homebrew (osx)

i've created a homebrew[1] formula for fluxus which makes it really
easy to install fluxus and all its dependencies (even scheme/racket)
on osx, entirely from source.

$ brew update
$ brew install fluxus

it currently uses fluxus head because 0.18 has not been released yet.

it also needs a patched[2] version of the fluxus scons script because
the source plt-racket install on homebrew doesn't build frameworks.

it would be great if we could make fluxus installable via homebrew
without the patch but that probably requires changes to the build
scripts, maybe have a switch to build either framework or shared lib.
