Finally a fully working Mac dmg
The Makefile change simply gets us the same setup with make install-macosx that we are getting from the gtk-mac-bundler - with the launcher script and subsurface installed as subsurface-bin. The changes in the README are what make the difference for getting a working dmg - there are a bunch of .so files that are part of gtk that didn't have their dependency load paths updated - and those made the application either crash or at least not display its own icon correctly.

What a pain.
+Worse, gtk-mac-bundler misses fails to catch the .so files that
+are part of the gdk-pixbuf loader infrastructure. So we need to
+manually adjust the load paths in them:
+
+for i in Resources/lib/gdk-pixbuf-2.0/2.10.0/loaders/* ; do \
+ ~/gtk-mac-bundler/bundler/run-install-name-tool-change.sh $i \
+ /Applications/Subsurface.app/Contents/Resources Resources change ; \
+done
+
+Finally, you need to change the IDs of the libraries:
+
+cd packagin/macosx/staging/Subsurface.app/Contents
+for i in Resources/lib/*.dylib; do install_name_tool -id "@executable_path/../$i" $i; done
+
You still need to manually build a DMG if you want to easily distribute this.
