That could work, but only if gnucash's use of libcanberra functionality doesn't require it to provide a valid X11 context. It also might mean that XQuartz must be running to start gnucash, which may not be what the OP wants.

How complete is the OS X version of GTk anyway, nowadays? I've tried gnucash under X11 with the oxygen-gtk2 theme installed, and it worked just fine...
