I can't tell you the exact SVN version, but as of Dec 4th, I have a
build of the OSX frontend on Tiger. I made pretty much all of the
changes you did but I'm not using ccache that I'm aware of.
The Xinerama stuff at least, will be contained in /usr/X11R6/lib/
libXinerama.dylib. The others are stuff like QComboBox, which look
like QT stuff. (It looks like you have qt-mt linked though, so you
may want to go down that road a little further.
Hope this is of some help. I'm not home for a month, otherwise I'd
look at my build environment a little.

Thanks to Geoff Kruse I found the osx-packager.pl script and have been
using that to try to build mythtv for OSX (Tiger). It's been quite an
adventure, despite the script! I've made some progress, which I'll
report here, and I think I need some help, too.
I've enclosed my current patch for the script.
* I'm trying to build a backend, so that's been enabled in the script.
* Many of the SourceForge download addresses in there wouldn't work
for me. I changed the script to use a different mirror
* FreeType is now at 2.1.10 and you can't get 2.1.9 anymore; updated
* I had some major issues because I had installed ccache with Fink
Commander, but somehow the cache directory was set to /dev/null and
I didn't know how to reconfigure it. Since g++ becomes a symbolic
link to ccache when it's installed, the QT test program that looks
for the Mac version was failing mysteriously, and I could never get
that #define set up. From there on it looked as though gcc's
preprocessor was broken. I had to add -v to QT's configure options
and watch messages carefully to even get a clue about this one.
* As part of one flawed attack at the problem above, I tried it with
QT 4. Its configure options are completely different. I left those
lines in the script, commented out, in case it becomes useful to
someone.
* After I got the QT mac version test program to compile, it wouldn't
link. Based on
http://lists.trolltech.com/qt-interest/2005-05/thread00265-0.html I
added -lobjc to the link line. Since it seemed to have the answers
I also added '-platform macx-g++' to the configure options. I don't
remember offhand whether that addressed a specific obstacle or if I
just went on faith based on that article. I know it was necessary
when I was trying to work with QT4, so it may well have been needed.
* In libexif-0.6.12/libexif/exif-utils.c, line 86, exif_get_sshort is
defined as static after being already declared without; I had to
comment out the 'static' in order to make the compiler happy
* In qt-mac-free-3.3.4/mkspecs/macx-g++/qplatformdefs.h,
#define QT_SOCKLEN_T int
needs to be
#define QT_SOCKLEN_T socklen_t
in order to work with the latest system headers.
* Some QT things were failing to find -lXext at link time, and after
mucking about with fink for *way* too long trying to find it (and I
hope I didn't mess up my configuration), I realized it was already
installed. So I added -L/usr/X11R6/lib to qmake_opts and QT got
happier.
* mythtv seems to hardcode the use of distcc into its Makefiles, and
OSX doesn't have a distcc binary available, at least, not from the
usual places. I had to download and build distcc from source.
* I'm now getting some link errors when building libmyth; I'm not sure
how to address these. Can anyone help?
