Use the OSX-specific Makefiles that are provided, e.g.:
If you use MacPorts, libfaketime can be installed on the command line
as follows:
cd src/
make -f Makefile.MacOS
sudo port install libfaketime
The resulting library will be named libfaketime.1.dylib
Otherwise, you have to compile and install libfaketime manually; this

on your machine.
Use the OSX-specific Makefile that is provided:
make -f Makefile.OSX
