	It's not as easy as just copying your tarball over and typing
'make', unfortunately.

	I have been looking into porting pilot-link to OSX, because of the
"interest" in the commercial conduit authors who are moving over to OSX now,
and find an empty space in the available tools there, and was digging around
on developer.apple.com. Apparently it's going to require some "carbonizing"
and some work with 'IOKit'. I'm sure Coldsync would be in the same boat, as
far as that is concerned.

	There's some more info here for those interested:
