macOS troubleshooting

`VERSION` issue, see here

If you are experiencing build failures on macOS with error messages like the following ones

path to file 'VERSION'; specified path differs in case from file name on disk [-Wnonportable-include-path]
#    include version
             ^~~~~~~~~
             VERSION

Then removing VERSION files from your opam switches should help:

find $(opam var --safe --strict root) -type f -name VERSION -exec rm {} \;

Update: looks like this issue is fixed since OCaml 4.12.
