I have no idea. There are a number of Mac installation instructions 
(including translations) on the Wiki, but I think they all cover the 
"release" installation. I *think* that the approach taken in the Windows 
guide should also work on Mac (pretend you use a released package and 
replace all the Python files in it - but from what I "know" about 
Apple's policies I wouldn't bet that they haven't done anything to 
prevent that kind of "abuse".
