Can I use Linux version of FGDB API on a Mac?

I tried loading the 64-bit version in xcode 4 on a Mac OS 10.6 (Snow Leopard), but I'm getting multiple "semantic issue" and "parse issue" errors, most of which seem to relate to dllimport. I've attached a screenshot of my header/library search paths. Is there a linker flag I should be using?

I also can't seem to be able to build the samples either.
I get the following errors when running make after adding $LD_LIBRARY_PATH to my profile

odoemac:samples odoe$ make
make -C Domains
g++ -fPIC -O2 -m32 -W -fexceptions -fno-inline  -D_CONSOLE -DUNICODE -D_UNICODE -DLINUX -D_REENTRANT -DFILEGDB_API -D__USE_FILE_OFFSET64 -DLINUX_FILEGDB_API -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -I../../include -I.  -c Domains.cpp

Or is Mac dev just a flat out no go?
I am not a C++ dev, so maybe there is stuff I am missing, but any help is appreciated, thanks.

I'd bet that this is not possible (different compilers?), but I'd be very interested if it were... especially because VirtualBox doesn't want to play nice with Lion. Can anyone out there give us a more definitive answer?

I would be amazed if there was any possibility that this would work. MacOS is not Linux - not even close.

There is a chance that there might eventually be a MacOS version of the API, but it would be dangerous to guess as to when that might occur.

It was worth a shot, thanks.
