well, the build should actually complete successfully on Snow Leopard. The  
alpha bundles[1] I do are also built for Snow Leopard, but here is the  
catch: Due to a nasty gtk-quartz bug, Banshee will crash upon startup on  
SL. I've tried to narrow down that bug a little but its quite hard to  
debug and my C skills are limited, so far I couldn't came up with a  
testcase to report it. And even if I can manage to do that, chances are  
slim it gets fixed, gtk-quarz backend isn't that good maintened as its  
linux counterpart.
