Hi Lars,
As far as I know, Kyngchaos site is the right and convenient place to
download QGIS for Mac.
You'll find GSL here [0]. I don't know if you really need to install it ( i
don't remember having done so when I installed QGIS on Mac).
But You'll need to install MatplotLib (maybe this info should be added to
the QGIS website).
Just download GDAL Complete, MatplotLib, QGIS dmg files (and may be GSL)
and follow the instructions inside. this page [1] may also help.

The previous version of QGIS that I have installed, v2.4, seems to have GSL
