Did you try the osx-packager script? I believe it should be able to
build and package up the backend. I didn't get it to work myself, but
I only had limited access to the Mac and don't know enough to about
Mac's to fix even the smallest problem. Anyway if the osx-packager
script doesn't work for you, you can probably get help from Nigel
with getting the script to work for you...

The HDHomeRun card should work on the Mac, but AFAIK no one has
tried it. I can probably help you with that portion if you get
to the point of having the Mac backend running.
