 Otool is provided by cctools . I am not sure exactly what it is meant to
 do (no Otools man-page is installed!)
 but apparently meson is not happy with however it is or is not doing it.

 I guess one MUST use virtualbox on Mac OS X because Qemu is so limited and
 libvirt + virt-manager do not build?
