Not emc2, no. But I've just compiled some code and got a GUI and supporting 
libraries running (on 10.4) - The middle layer(s) compiled without error, so 
once the low level stuff can be built, it should run.

I doubt the real time services provided by OS X will give adequate for a 
truely deterministic trajectory planner - I would envisage the core of this 
(and any pulse generator) having to run on an embedded board or fpga. The 
alternative would be to install Linux along with a suitably patched kernel 
and thus sidestepping the complexities of having to deal with the IOkit.


Regards, Paul.
