VLCKit does slightly more stuff, but not much it seems.

Ideally, we could have one script which just compiles contribs + vlc + installs everything into a given prefix.

Then each flavor could have its own scripts to package the stuff, or do lipo or whatever. If we have additional {C, CXX, LD}FLAGS for one platform specifically, those should stay in the platform specific scripts as well.

I am also thinking of moving out all the export stuff (to setup the correct environment) into separate files, which you can then source into your current shell. This could be done from different scripts, but it is also helpful for developers to setup a correct env, if you want to run make commends by hand.

As you probably know best what you need for iOS, maybe you also share some ideas which split might make most sense?
