Yes, you need the appliance part from a Linux OS -- the one from the
Fedora binaries we distribute is best.
I don't think it would be possible to build a Mac OS X-based
appliance, not least because Mac OS X cannot[1] be run under
virtualization.
At least this seems like the easiest way. You said that Mac OS X
*was* working. What caused it to stop working and how was this
problem addressed before?

If it doesn't compile now, it will be simply because the code has
bitrotted because we don't regularly build on OS X.
