I'm the current "official" maintainer of the Mac Carbon port. At least
I'm the one currently listed in the MAINTAINERS file for the MacOS
port.
What in particular do you feel makes it "not-mac-like?" The difficult
thing in the carbon port is to strike a balance between emacs-like
features and Mac-like features when they come into conflict. One
example I'm currently wrestling with is the font dialog: it is modeless
palette on the Mac, but is a modal dialog inside Emacs
