Only the CVS Version has support to build on MacOSX.

As Steven have said:
* I would suggest pulling down the CVS, following the directions
* at savannah: See http://savannah.gnu.org/cvs/?group=emacs .

It's easy, give it a try, in terminal.app type

cvs -d:pserver:anoncvs@subversions.gnu.org:/cvsroot/emacs login
When prompted for a password for anoncvs, simply press the Enter key.
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anoncvs@subversions.gnu.org:/cvsroot/emacs co emacs

That'all you have to do. After Download you have the CVS-Head in your
Home-Dir ~/emacs to compile.

Enjoy
