I don't think this is very likely, but I don't know for sure.

As far as I know coins only circulate with binaries for Windows and Linux, offhand I can't think of a single altcoin with mac binaries included.

I'm guessing it would just a matter of compiling the source slightly differently for mac, though it might be way more complicated.

Programming is not my area of expertise.

However, I think that smartphone wallets address a much larger market.

Some Windows applications can run on a mac if one has CrossOver Mac.

What about a Windows emulator like Wine?

Sure,  just figure it would be good to have something to use instead of the generic icon before the next build is needed.    So, don't feel rushed on it, but when you have something let me know.
