There's a prosaic reason to want to port to Mac: sometimes you walk into a studio or concert hall and find only a Mac there. If you're a Pd user, you'd want to just run your music on the Mac...
I've already started on a port, using PortAudio; I don't know about CoreAudio/CoreMidi. But I think it's pointless until TK comes along for OSX, and we can't predict when that will become available, although I don't think more than a few months from now.

Well, speaking only for myself: I am working on a port simply for my own amusement, and to learn CoreAudio. Pd also provides a neat framework to develop ideas of my own.
Irony would be back-porting it to run on a Cube with the IRCAM DSP board under Nextstep 3.0.
