Sean,
I am tremendously interested in extending the use of Linux apps to OSX, although I haven't done nearly enough homework on it yet.

Is there built in Jack support in PD 0.37 for OSX? I am using a version of PD that installs from a nice package; would things work better if I built from source?
Try compiling. It really helps to understand what is going on in your macine.
First, after downloading the source [I reccomend getting it from CVS], edit the Makefile and remove the sections for Linux, Irix and Windows.
Then: # ./configure --enable-jack # make
and you will probably want to manually copy the new pd executable to wherever you have it installed already, instead of doing the traditional 'make install'. I haven't done this on OSX yet, and different installers seem to have differne theories about this, so do a little research to see what works for you. You should only have to compile PD itself, without any other externals.
Let me know how it goes! best, D.
