Thanks for reviewing!  Since you already did review it, I think we can
probably skip the CF paperwork and just push it.

One thing that needs to be figured out is what to do with the old osx
scripts.  My inclination is to remove that subdirectory in HEAD.
However, I'd like to also stick these new scripts into the supported
back branches, since the problem is just as real for any back branch
as it is for v11.  What I propose for the back branches is to add
contrib/start-scripts/macos/ alongside .../osx/, keeping the latter,
but adjust its README to note that those scripts are only for pre-10.10
versions of macOS.
