Has any one had any success compiling Lilypond 2.12.2 on a MAC OS

What are the errors reported by the compiler? And why not use the
precompiled binary?
The precompiled version 2.12.2 does not seem to have any menu I can
access to compile lilypond scripts as instructed in the opening
editor
script. I.e. the only thing that appears in the menu bar is the
LilyPond
menu item, no compile menu item.
Compiling from scratch will do nothing about this; compiling from
scratch will just give you the command-line app that already works
as part of the precompiled binaries.
If you're seriously interested in fixing this, search the -devel
mailist for the numerous discussions about what Apple broke in
10.5. But if you're not prepared to do a fair amount of low-level
hacking in python and OSX packages, then I highly advise you to
either use the command-line version, or use jedit (lilypondtool, I
think it's called?)
