You could probably install emacs-carbon, and then install Emacs21
by building it yourself in /usr/local, by applying the patches required.

However, I switched from using Emacs-carbon to Emacs21, and
didn't really miss anything in the experience. I'd recommend
sticking with Emacs21 -- it's much more stable than emacs-carbon
anyway, and speedier as well.

Isn't emacs-carbon based on Emacs 21, and emacs-alpha based on
Emacs 20? I could be wrong, easily, but that was my impression...
