MacOSX and Evolution
I'd also look at possibly putting Darwin (the underlying OS for OSX, more or less) on a spare box and setting that up to do compiles and such. I think it may serve well for a development area and give you some great opportunities to mess around with the basis for OSX. You can also go and look around for Darwin on google as well, a lot of people were very excited about it for a while and there was some talk of porting it to Intel (but I think that died out). Good luck, and have fun...;

sys::filesystem::darwin
Sys::Filesystem::Darwin(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Sys::Filesystem::Darwin(3pm)
NAME
Sys::Filesystem::Darwin - Return Darwin (Mac OS X) filesystem information to Sys::Filesystem
SYNOPSIS
See Sys::Filesystem.
DESCRIPTION
The filesystem information is taken from diskutil, the system utility supplied on Mac OS X.
INHERITANCE
Sys::Filesystem::Darwin
ISA Sys::Filesystem::Unix
ISA UNIVERSAL
METHODS
version ()
Return the version of the (sub)module.
ATTRIBUTES
The following is a list of filesystem properties which may be queried as methods through the parent Sys::Filesystem object.
The property 'label' is also set, but cannot be queried by Sys::Filesystem yet.
mount_point
The mount point (usually either '/' or '/Volumes/...').
device
The mounted device
format
Describes the type of the filesystem. So far I encountered the following types:
hfs The standard Mac OS X HFS(+) filesystem. Disk images (.dmg) and Mac Software DVDs normally also use the HFS(+) format.
msdos
DOS image files (e.g. floppy disk images)
cd9660
CD-ROM image files or real CD-ROMs
cddafs
Audio CDs
udf UDF filesystem (e.g. DVDs)
(empty)
For mounted FTP servers, disktool returns an empty filesystem type (ie, '').
BUGS
Doesn't take /etc/fstab or /etc/xtab into account right now, since they are normally not used. Contact the author if you need this.
