Cyclone is here: http://suita.chopin.edu.pl/~czaja/miXed/externs/cyclone.html. Looks like there are no binaries for darwin, so you'll want to build from source.
To clarify, Pd does not emulate Max, so it might be hard to port your patches. Jitter and GUI-intensive stuff, especially. IIRC there is a "cyclist" executable that will convert binary patches to the text patches that are readable by Pd.

does someone know, how to use Max/Msp patches in pd. With "open" i can choose to enable Max files, but it doesnt work. i get some messages "cant creat object ..." for the nonexisting objects but the patch doesnt open. (using OS X and Max 4.3 and pd 0.37).
You can only open Max patches in text format (*.pat). Installing Cyclone will let Pd create much more of the Max objects, that are missing. But if you get Max patches, that use, say, a lot of Jitter objects, you're out of luck. Otherwise some missing objects can be emulated a bit by providing abstractions that have the same number of in- and outlets. You still will need to write the functionality of the missing objects then.
