I sent John Ralls a message, he says that we have to bundle an on screen reader called Orca to handle the GTK side of things.
I suppose this is how it is done in linux. so If that can be working first then we can try to make an XboardOrca.app or something. Thing is, I bet it would still need VoiceOver to read the OSX menubar.
