It uses whatever MacPorts provides; by default: 

  gtk2 @2.20.1_0 +x11

but I can specify for it to use instead:

  gtk2 @2.20.1_0 +no_x11 +quartz

and then I have to go through all of the various graphics ports & make sure 
they are also +no_x11+quartz .  I haven't tried this latter to make sure it 
works, but I don't see why it wouldn't (unless one of the ports is broken with 
those variants).

I built solely as x86_64 (64-bit), not as universal (which would include i386 
[32-bit]).  I haven't gone through all of the installed libraries by hand to 
verify that all are 64-bit, but linking wouldn't work if they weren't so I'm 
guessing they are.  Also, all of the testing I've done is to run "make check" 
(which does pass) ... I haven't tried a GUI or anything yet.  Hopefully I'll 
find time to try it in the next couple of days; or, maybe some other GNU Radio 
OSX user will beat me to doing so :)

Good questions; keep 'em coming! - MLD
