This, I think, is the practical problem we keep running into. The mac port has never integrated with the development head well (in the 2+ years I've been watching), and it doesn't look like it will live next to the ns port without significant effort. On the flip side, while some people seem to have a much better experience with the mac port than the ns port, others (including myself) have the opposite experience.
Right now, we're the closest we've ever been to being able to try the mac port code with the current emacs (not the last release, but the current code), and from what I'm hearing 2-4 people have made small attempts at integrating the two and failed. I'm sure that a dedicated effort would succeed, but it won't be trivial, and it might not even be easy. This really seems like a place where arguing pre-code is not very helpful - let's get a working dev+mac tree somewhere, and then figure out what to do with them.
Hopefully this isn't making things worse,
*Chad
