there is. its usability varies depending on your application. we (the
ardour project) can't use it yet - it is still too unstable and there is
missing functionality. i wish someone would fund serious, aggressive
development of gtk-aqua because it would help out *so* many development
efforts.

The folks at Imendio are working on the native port. I was able to  'run' my socket focused software program with GTK and no X on MAC. From a recent post they made on their forums, you won't see the next major push for native GTK on MAC OS X till gtk 2.12.

"Hi, the port is still marked as experimental, and is shipped with 2.10 and later. We are not working on the 2.10 version however but instead focusing on the 2.12 version that is coming up. There is still some work needed, like performance improvements and writing a native theme."
