After looking at Darwine's quartzdrv, it looks like it uses CoreGraphics.

Yeah, a wiki page for the Quartz driver would be nice. There are a couple implementations floating around, some using QuickDraw and some using CoreGraphics. Most have endian bugs, since they were written with Darwine/PPC in mind. As far as which is best, it seems to be that QD is easiest, but it's a deprecated API. I think I'd use CG if I decided to sit down and write it, which I might do. I've got some free time, and in a week or so I'll have access to an intel mac for development. Thoughts on CG? Alexandre?
