Description
qjackctl depends on qt4-x11 presently. however, it builds and produces a fully functional qjacktl.app also with qt4-mac only. to build, i did the following:
download and decompress tarball qjackctl 0.3.4
./configure --with-qt=/opt/local/libexec/qt4-mac/
make
i then copied the resulting qjackctl.app to /Applications.
finally, it was necessary to set manually the full path to the jackdmp server in the preferences of qjackctl.
works nicely!
so i suggest dropping the qt4-x11 dependency in favor of the qt4-mac one.

Some people will prefer x11 others mac native. So a better approach is to make a new port that builds mac native and depends on qt4-mac. Then the user can choose what he likes.
I'll take a look at this. Thanks for the suggestion.
