compiling the linux port in mac

[nahuel]

I've been trying out the linux port of the engine and I have to say it is quite impressive the work being done there. On the other hand, the mac beta port is not so good. As a linux and mac user I was wondering if it would be possible to compile the linux engine on a mac. Evidently if both are unix environments it should be straightforward. Of course, we would require X11 in mac, but that i included by apple anyway. So, my quetion is, would it be possible for anybody to do such a port? and if not? would the sourcecode of the linux port be available for anybody interested in producing mac binaries?
