Comment:

 Yes, there is.

 Update to 2.7.3 committed in r84366. Builds on SL 10.6.8, Xcode 4.1,
 x86_64.  Please test and submit your input as new tickets or via email
 lists. Native Mac OS X support seems to be a very low priority upstream
 (or maybe low interest).

 ISSUES:

   * The Mac OS X native GUI uses 32 bit only Carbon primitives so will
 only build i386 or ppc.
   * Compile issues associated with GtkAccelLabel anachronisms in app/gui
 /ige-mac-menu.c solved by backporting patch from post 2.7.3 git master

 BUILDING on 64 bit machines (x86_64 ppc64):

   * to aid building/rebuilding port and dependencies in 32 bit mode,
 configure MacPorts to build i386 or ppc
 as the default (build_arch in $prefix/etc/macports/macports.conf)
   * rebuild all dependencies either +universal or rebuild using your new
 default so that they all have a 32 bit binary
   * python27 (default) needs to be built 32 bit only (not universal) so
 that it runs in 32 bit mode for plugins
   * build gimp2-devel in new default 32 bit mode

 KNOWN PROBLEMS:

   * on startup the program waits a long time initializing the script-fu
 extension.  Be patient.
   * gimp crashes if you try and open a file using the File->Open Recent...
 menu item.  Using File->Open works fine.
