What does "it" refer to here?  Presumably not macosx-setup.sh, as that's a stand-alone script, and is neither run by the Makefile generated by the autotools nor by the Makefile generated by CMake.  Whether it installs stuff needed by the autotools or CMake to configure Wireshark is up to the software it's installing, not by the script itself.

Disabling -Werror for what?

If you're referring to Wireshark, rather than macosx-setup.sh, we build it on several platforms with -Werror; it builds just fine for me on Mountain Lion with -Werror.
