It might be worth considering to distribute only the open source parts of OSX
with Gentoo OSX. Then ebuilds for proprietary components could simply require
an OSX install CD, assuming ebuilds have a way for getting distfiles from
CD-ROM... The user probably wouldn't be able to install the OSX GUI within
the chroot this way, but the manual doesn't include XFree in the chroot part,
either, so this shouldn't make much of a difference...
