Re: Issue 871 in lilypond: support for MacOS X 10.6 snow leopard

Comment #1 on issue 871 by marnenlk: support for MacOS X 10.6 snow leopard
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=871

Whether the main developers have Snow Leopard or not, this is a  
high-priority issue, since it effectively
renders the program nearly unusable on Mac OS X. It does not seem sensible  
to artificially lower the priority
of -- let's face it -- a deal-breaking bug, when that lowering is solely  
based on the dev team's limitations.

I'll be happy to help with Snow Leopard testing, but something has got to  
be done about this. Lilypond hasn't
really worked right on Mac OS since Tiger (the last time both the GUI and  
the compiler worked decently), and
that's not acceptable for a piece of software aimed at a non-technical  
audience.

I've seen some reports that the LastResort.ttf font is making things  
slower, though I haven't been able to
confirm that myself.

Anyway...how can I help? I'd like to get Lilypond usable on Mac OS again.
