There is nothing whatsoever that is fancy about this part. If you see  
the log message that the script is being called, then it gets called.  
It's a simple system call that sys "execute this filename" and the os  
is expected to take over from there.

There isn't much else that can be done from the plugin side of  
things.  The script must be executable by the slimserver/squeezecenter  
user, and in this case also have create/write permissions in /tmp. I  
personally don't know what user realm is used for the osx dmg install  
version, and I tend remain blissfully unaware of the deeper darker  
internals of osx itself.

I'd start simple, with a script that does just an echo to stdout.   
Then run the server manually from the terminal:
/Library/PreferencePanes/SqueezeCenter.prefPane/Contents/server/ 
slimserver.pl

This is what I did for my own test, and that should work.  In this  
case, as long as the script can be run by you, then the plugin will do  
the same since it runs with your permissions.
