Subject: Tweaks for older Mac OS X versions.

- `brew update` should try to install `curl` before `git` on older
  versions of Mac OS X where it is needed for accessing modern SSL
  certificates.
- We don't need an HTTP mirror for `git` because `curl` will already be
  installed before it is downloaded.
- Don't recommend GCC on Mac OS X versions where it can't be built with
  the default system compiler.
- Start using the Homebrew `curl` on Mac OS X versions where it is
  needed as soon as it is installed.
