I recently built Padre 0.94 on a Macbook Pro running OSX 10.7.3 (the latest of 
of today).  The build was actually pretty easy, once I found instruction on 
building a 32-bit perl with perlbrew.  For reference in case anyone else needs 
this, the basic step are:

1) install perlbrew (see http://perlbrew.pl)
2) create a 32-bit perl:
./perlbrew install 5.14.2 -ders -Dusethreads -Duseithreads -Accflags="-arch 
i386" -Accflags="-B/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.6.sdk/usr/include/gcc" 
-Accflags="-B/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.6.sdk/usr/lib/gcc" 
-Accflags="-isystem/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.6.sdk/usr/include" 
-Accflags="-F/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.6.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks" 
-Accflags="-mmacosx-version-min=10.5" -Aldflags="-arch i386 
-Wl,-search_paths_first" 
-Aldflags="-Wl,-syslibroot,/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.6.sdk" 
-Aldflags="-mmacosx-version-min=10.5" -Alddlflags="-arch i386 
-Wl,-search_paths_first" 
-Alddlflags="-Wl,-syslibroot,/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.6.sdk" 
-Alddlflags="-mmacosx-version-min=10.5" -Duseshrplib
3) switch to that perl, then install Padre from cpan.  It built without issues 
for me anyway.

Once I ran it I found a few issues, including the following:

1) scrolling is with the touchpad doesn't really work -- it is very slow.  This 
makes the app basically unusable, because if you have a large document and 
can't scroll quickly, it doesn't work very well.  This is probably the same 
issue as is reported here: http://padre.perlide.org/trac/ticket/1284

2) The top menu says "wxPerl", instead of "Padre", and the menu options say 
"Hide wxPerl" and so on.  Not that big a deal, just odd.
