OSX installation #15

Any chance of getting this to install on OSX?

The installer is getting stuck at the 'therubyracer' package.

OS X and Windows are currently not supported, and I guess most users install JSDetox into a virtual machine anyway and do not care that much about the OS.

It should be much easier to get it up and running on OS X than on Windows though, but therubyracer seems to have some issues on OS X. According to this discussion, an issues with the underlying library libv8 was fixed just a few hours ago. This might work now, depending on your installed software versions etc.:

gem install libv8 -v 3.16.4.4
gem install therubyracer
