Yes.  You don'tneed the source for just running Emacs but you need it for
debugging.  When execution stops at a breakpoint it displays the current
source line, allows you to see the source code from where the current routine
was called etc.

I'm not familiar with make-package, but you can just follow the instructions
"BUILDING EMACS ON MAC OS X" in INSTALL in the mac directory:

  ./configure --enable-carbon-app
  make

You don't need to do "make install" but you may have to also look at
INSTALL.CVS in the emacs directory.
