Therefore, as long as everything (Xconq, GTK+, et al.) compiles on MacOS X (which, in my experience, is not always certain), it can be used on MacOS X. And I know that GTK+ is available for MacOS X via the Fink project (although it's an older version of GTK+). Of course, the same is not true for "classic" MacOS (before X).
