It is actually not that far fetched when one
considers what OS X is.
Granted its not needed since OS X will be a fringe OS
for some time.. But the technical feasability of it
is definately easy.
In fact I bet you could get it working in OS X with
VERY little coding at all.
OS X is built on FreeBSD and a BSD kernel which have
excellent Linux emulation.
Take linux version of CF, run on OS X under emulation.
A native port to another Unix is cake, they have three
already, HP/UX, Solaris, Linux, moving to a BSD would not
be much trouble at all (in relative terms to say porting
it to MacOS)
OS X *IS* another Unix..
