That's the part we cannot provide unfortunately. There is sadly no
toolchain that can produce a MacOS PEF binary other than hosted in
MacOS itself. In fact I don't think Apple XCode can either, which
leaves us with CodeWarrior (commercial) or MPW (which I think at some
point became free but I didn't find it and it doesn't work on OS X
afaik).

So we'll have to stick to the images I build for now at least though
the git repo does have the .xml CW project fie. 

Cheers,
Ben.
