I've also added more candy to the MacOS X version. 

Unfortunately, you also added a tiny bit of breakage in the MacOS X version: In framework-ps.scm, when calling fondu, you replaced the call to system (which returns a numeric status) with a call to ly:system (which throws an exception or returns nothing). As a result, every successful call to fondu blows up with a message like:

Layout output to `tunisia.ps'...(/Library/Fonts/Verdana Verdana)/sw/share/lilypond/2.5.31/scm/lily-library.scm:338:8: In procedure = in _expression_ (= lst r):

/sw/share/lilypond/2.5.31/scm/lily-library.scm:338:8: Wrong type argument in position 1: #<unspecified>

One way to fix this is to add a status return to ly:system:

Presumably, you'd prefer to instead replace the numeric status check in framework-ps.scm with a catch, but I'll leave that up to you to ponder.

With the above fix, I can confirm that my test succeeded on MacOS X.
