[drats_users] D-RATS 0.3.0-alpha2

[debbie fligor]

Dan, I tried to whip up a .app for this one, and ran into this issue  
on the last fonts step:

bash ./build/macos/make_pango.sh /opt/local dist/d-rats-0.3.0-alpha2.app
bash: ./build/macos/make_pango.sh: No such file or directory

and indeed there's no make_pango.sh file in there.

can I just move over the one from the 0.2.10 directory, or do I need  
something special here?

and once it's built, where do you want it? I can put it on my web  
server for you to grab and move to yours, or send it by mail, or  
something else if you tell me what you want me to do.
