Installation instructions for Mac #24

Installing RMINC on mac seems to be difficult due to python being unable to find libminc2.dylib (or .so). @jasonlerch, you've run into this I think, how did you get around it?

With OSX scrubbing DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH before opening python, find_library is probably useless. Perhaps we could ask OSX users to create an environment variable "MINC_TOOLKIT_PATH" and search on there manually.

I got around it by hacks: either moving libs to one of the included paths or by using otool to change lookups.

Any thoughts on requiring an environment var?
