[BRLTTY] (Solved) Unable to compile brltty after upgrade to Mac High Sierra 10.13.1

[Cheryl Homiak <cahomiak@gmail.com>]

Usually when doing compiling in my home directory it is not necessary to 
use sudo for make though I do need to use it for make install. I believe I 
had tried using sudo when the compile was being stopped by errors having 
to do with brlapi but I think I hadn't tried that when trying to compile 
with brlapi disabled or immediately after the brlapi problem was fixed.
I just now tried running make with sudo and it compiled. So now I can go 
back to using the latest git update as long as I use sudo when running make.
