You might try to compile with Clang on Fedora 21. It is pretty close to
the OSX version and gives lots of warning messages (which correlate
pretty well with the coverity diagnostics).

I finally had a chance to test this. Here are my concerns:
* The Ctrl+mouse wheel behavior is completely broken on windows and I
suspect Linux as well when the use mouse wheel to pan option is set. It
acts just the Shift+mouse scroll wheel (scroll vertically). This needs
to be fixed. The default behavior should always remain the same across
platforms. It can be OSX specific compiled code or a configurable
option but breaking the current behavior on other platforms is not an
option.
* The Ctrl+wheel mouse when the use mouse to pan option is not set
(zoom) periodically freezes. I seems to come back when I perform some
other function that updates the display but the exact cause I cannot say
for sure.
I did not get a chance to try it out on a laptop to test the track pad
behavior. It definitely needs some work before it can be committed to
the product branch.

My last build last week seemed to work fine with both up-down and
left-right panning using the trackpad.
If you want to support OSX in the stable release, I would say that
trackpad panning is important.
I won't be able to do much testing until after next Tuesday.

Ah yes, reality hits the fan, as it often does.
At least on Fedora 21, I can pan with the mouse wheel depressed and it
correctly pans the display for all intents and purposes. And if I roll
the mouse wheel it zooms.
Everyone is practicing how to build Kicad from src, because after the
stable release you/we plan to remove all that spaghetti cmake stuff
that we all love to hate about cmake. I, for instance, have taken to
building release and debug versions of Kicad every now and then with
all their Kicad dependencies built and you can verify that with ldd.
I have largely succeeded despite lots of pointless complains from
cmake. That is, I have built
boost 1.5.7
wxWidgets 3.0.2.0
pixman git head version
gl enabled cairo git head, essentially 10.2
Bleeding edge all. Kicad hasn't blinked. Kicad doesn't really care
about versions; it cares only that certain calls exist in whichever
version of dependencies it has.
I also have installed and built wxPython_Phoenix, built via pip, but
not in the way kicad approves of. There should be a patch in wxPython
head to make wxPython (any version) build using the picky gcc 4.9.2
compiler. But the wxPython people have since run off again and are
working on wxPython_Phoenix now.
When I get wxPython correctly built against wxWidgets I would try to
figure out how to make Kicad build with the
-DKICAD_USE_WEBKIT=ON flag on Fedora 21.
I will also try building all the dependencies, and Kicad, with clang
and clang++. If it works on OS X, then it should work on Linux as
well, yes?
Ideally, there would be an external (from Kicad) script, jar or python
program that would attempt to maintain some semblance of constraints
only for that platform. cmake would do what it does fairly well: it
builds the code and installs it. It could use some more work on the
make clean target that really makes clean, instead of the make
mostlyclean we have now.
