I think the poster is interested in being able to try the build/check on a Mac in the fashion that Winbuilder does. That is, rather than have CRAN do all the platform checks, is there a way to submit a package to be tested for just one platform?
It may be useful to have such a facility so package builders can test before submission, and from my own experience I believe would help to render packages more platform neutral. I suspect that all the pieces are in place to do this, but perhaps a nice front end is needed. Is that something for a Google Summer of Code task?
