I think having a xcode project would be quite nice. Furthermore a cocoa client completely based on spice-client-glib would be the better option compared to (native) gtk imho. I guess having a look at the Cord project (http://cord.sourceforge.net/) might be a good start (they ported freeRDP into a really nice cocoa app).
Cheers Kai PS : The spice-gtk-0.6 builds nearly without any hacks on osx. I will try to provide a patch for the Makefile in ./gtk soon (regarding the sym-file issue)...
