Obtain gcc with openmp support by `brew install gcc --without-multilib` **or** clang with openmp by `brew install clang-omp`. The clang one is recommended because the first method requires us compiling gcc inside the machine (more than an hour in mine)! (BTW, `brew` is the de facto standard of `apt-get` on OS X.

The point is, there are three `Makevars` : `~/.R/Makevars`, `xgboost/R-package/src/Makevars`, and `/usr/local/Cellar/r/3.2.0/R.framework/Resources/etc/Makeconf` (the last one obtained by running `file.path(R.home("etc"), "Makeconf")` in R), and `SHLIB_OPENMP_CXXFLAGS` is not set by default!! After trying, it seems that the first one has highest piority (surprise!).
