I forgot to mention the reason for your observations: the geometry package
consists solely of octave script files (m-files). The miscellaneous and control
package (as well as many others) include additional C++ and/or Fortran Code
besides the m-files. Therefore you need a compiler (like the one that comes
with XCode) in order to translate this code from C++ and Fortran to machine
code which can be executed by your computer.
