FWIW, I've got a real (read: PowerPC) Mac (eMac to be more specific) 
running Sugar from distro packages on Debian squeeze quite fine. 
Installation was a bit painfull, though - I need to repeat it some time 
and file bug reports. Or maybe someone else is adventurous enough to try 
it? :)

They can't run sugar-jhbuild directly inside MacOS X. It's possible in 
theory, but would take a lot of effort (most of it probably changing 
upstream code to build and run on MacOS X).

That's one option. The two others are dual-booting into some Linux 
distro (similar to what they seem to do with Windows) and SoaS. But Gary 
probably knows about that much better than I do. :)
