This seems to work:

        NSAlert *alert = [[NSAlert alloc] init];

        [alert setMessageText:@"Message text"];
        [alert setInformativeText:@"Informative text."];

        NSButton *okButton = [alert addButtonWithTitle:@"OK"];
        NSButton *cancelButton = [alert addButtonWithTitle:@"Cancel"];
        [cancelButton setFrame:NSMakeRect(10000, 10000, 0, 0)];
        [cancelButton setTarget:okButton];
        [cancelButton setAction:@selector(performClick:)];

        [alert runModal];

It uses the fact that

You don't need to set the target and action, but they complete the illusion of 
Esc being a key equivalent for the OK button.
