I haven't used GRASS, but Barry Rowlingson just presented at FOSS4G about an integrated system called "Arlat" using Quantum GIS (available for Mac OS X) for desktop mapping and R as a statistics engine, connected with Python. http://www.foss4g2007.org/presentations/view.php?abstract_id=135 He is planning on posting details to the R-SIG-Geo list (https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-geo), but there is a paper describing the implementation here: http://www.bepress.com/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1103&context=jhubiostat I'm looking into this for use with MapServer: http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/ William Kyngesburye has Mac OS X binaries of MapServer at his kyngchaos site, although I don't recall if they use Apple's Apache 1.3 or permit you to install your own Apache 2. This doesn't solve your immediate problem, but if you want to serve up spatial data via a web interface, I think you'll find MapServer much easier to use than rolling your own.
