[pdal] Trouble compiling PDAL with MATLAB Plugin on Mac OS

[Andrew Bell]

This doesn't seem to have anything to do with PDAL, so I would do the
normal debug process of making a simple reproducer. In this case that means
using the most basic CMakeLists.txt that requires matlab and debug that. If
you can recreate the error with something simple, you should be able to ask
questions elsewhere to resolve the issue of go through it until you can
figure it out.
