• What about installing GCC instead of/in addition to Clang? As far as I know we don't support building DMD with Clang yet.
• If only the command line developer tools are installed, will the makefile find the SDK properly?
• You might want to add a note how to get Mac OS X. That is, if you have bough Mac OS X from the App Store, the older versions are still available for Download from the Purchases tab.

I didn't had any problems using only the command line tools.

Uses of raw.github.com on lines L18 and L20 should be changed to raw.githubusercontent.com. These urls are redirected to the correct location when used in a browser but are not redirected when used in script.

The same applies to the OSX-vagrant.md file.
Change: https://gist.github.com/MartinNowak/8156507/raw/setup.sh
To: https://gist.githubusercontent.com/MartinNowak/8156507/raw/setup.sh

@MartinNowak this works with 10.13 too :-)

I already had a 10.13 machine, so just obtained the "install macOS High Sierra.app" via the appropriate means of doing so.

Recommend running: diskutil secureErase freespace 0 / before shutdown though.
Then on the host run: VBoxManage modifymedium disk "OSX-10.13.vdi" --compact - otherwise you might be left with a ~27GB vmdk, instead of ~9GB.
