The people you would need to ask about this (if they don't speak up
here) are those listed on this page:
http://www.adapower.com/lab/macos/index.html

The first step in any such port would be a Gcc port to that platform.
Does such a port exist? Porting gcc to Win32 required a project to
emulate a lot of the standard Unix calls and also required ports of a
lot of the gnu tools. My understanding of the Mac situation is that
no-one has bothered to do this since Tenon basicly has already done it.
