My understanding is that MacPorts does everything POSIX-style. MAME is intended to be built OSX-native, with the native framework version of SDL (MacPorts uses POSIX-style SDL built against X11). There is some support in the build system for POSIX-on-Mac because a few very loud people demanded it, but the resulting build is not supported and I don't want to hear about it when they find out it's slower and clunkier and less compatible with roms.
