The server side isn't very likely (or at least is unlikely to be
useful) — I haven't looked into it myself but from what I hear HFS+
just ignores stuff like fsync().
All that said, I'd love it if the entire system would build on OS X;
I'd like to experiment with developing in XCode. I spent a little time
on it at one point but it was a pretty big mess trying to get all the
dependencies over. Now that I think about it, just trying to get
ceph-fuse building would probably be a better way to start since it
won't have so many of the package dependencies.
