OpenSCAP itself can be compiled on and used on MacOS X in a special
mode with "--disable-probes". In this mode it will be able to parse
all the content but not evaluate OVAL on the target machine. We use
this to build SCAP Workbench on MacOS X. Check out
http://static.open-scap.org/scap-workbench-1.1/ for how to use SCAP
Workbench. The remote scanning workflow works on MacOS X as well as
Windows.

Adding basic support for OSX into OpenSCAP probably wouldn't be that
difficult but it's something we haven't looked into (yet). Any help
welcome in that area.
