I tested on OS X 10.5.7. It works well, a few details:

These commands come standard, many OS X users do not know Terminal
exists. I'd remove this mention to avoid possible confusion.

Certainly a side-effect of the age of my system install (and SC
install, I guess), but my 'cache' directory resides in
~/Library/Caches/SlimServer/ (in fact I also have
~/Library/Caches/SqueezeCenter, but it's only used by iTunesArtwork.)
This makes the install process break, since $script uses
Library/Caches/SqueezeCenter. 
I relaunched the script manually, as is, from Library/Caches/SlimServer
and the install went well.
So maybe this is worth a footnote in the readme ?

I had to reboot the machine entirely to get sudo to come to effect.
Before that I had weird system messages in the console saying that my
very own uid wasn't to be found in /etc/passwd.

The block/unblock on login works if the server's CLI is on the standard
port. For my latest experiments I had moved the CLI port to 6666, and
the side effect is that block/unblock don't operate.
Perhaps you want to mention this in the install doc ?

And of course, once everything is in place, the machine sleeps, wakes,
reboots, like a clockwork. 

I don't know how many mac users are out there, but I think they've been
properly served and I expect they'll let you know.
