Then why not get him or some other Mac user to do another build? Maybe they don't have the required compiler?

If there are some 'legal' issues (when no 'Mac hw') then why and how there exist

The original Mac app was likely built with a free cross-compiler so no legal probs there. It's the highly optimised apps where the legal considerations become a problem. Not saying this is what happened but suppose the optimised apps were built on a proprietary compiler that oh, I dunno, just guessing about this next part, maybe won't build for Mac unless it's running on a Mac? I think you can figure out the rest.

For Mac we need XCode from Apple which is bundled GCC. So we need Mac to run Mac OS legally.

Edit: IMCROSS is a little older but may work. App itself is ok, but build of boinc lib may be the problem. I'll check it.
