I think he means

Though things seemed broken the first few days under Snow Leopard,  
I've had success using both Smultron and LilyPond since then - maybe  
some Apple updates helped?

I've run LilyPond 2.13.3-0 and 2.13.4-1 alone, as well as calling each  
from Smultron 3.5.1 using Ivo Bouwmans' instructions (except for which  
versions of each program to get...) under Mac OSX 10.6.1

Here's hoping personal experience can trump superior knowledge - seems  
like things are working fine for me.

all the best,
