My question is whether it is even possible to get a BSD standalone to run through a terminal window on a OS X Mac? Perhaps there a trick to getting the system to recognize it properly as an executable? Or do have have to boot into a pure Unix system to run the standalone? I was thinking that I could test things out on my Mac before I went in to put this on a pure Unix system.

I don't think you ever got an answer to this, and to be honest, I'm not sure myself. But I know that for CGI work, we can't use the native unix engines on OS X, we need to use a special "Darwin" build. If that's a universal requirement, then I'd say you couldn't use BSD standalones either and you'll need to find a native machine for testing.
