setserial-2.17-mac-os-x.patch

setserial-2.17 does not compile on mac os x.

I am using setserial-2.17-r4 from prefix.

Not sure if this is yet fixed upstream.

Build failed initially with:
x86_64-apple-darwin13-gcc -march=nocona -O2 -pipe -I/Users/cfriedt/Gentoo/usr/include -I/usr/include    -I. setserial.c -o setserial
couldn't understand kern.osversion `14.1.0'
