Well, 5.5.9 has been successfully compiled for OS X. 5.6.1 should also
compile well. Ryan D. Brown (I can't find his email now, but I think it
looks like ribrdb@<somedomain>) did the port, I did not do it for I do
not have any Mac OS X machine to test it.

I can't remember if Ryan is on the list, if yes he'll probably answer.
If not I'll try and contact him, it's true that an "official" packaging
of LW for OSX wouldn't harm.

Honestly, if you install Allegro (installable on OS X, that's sure) then
compiling the game under OS X should be fine. Maybe a ./configure &&
make could work to build the package. Have a look on ./Makefile or on
the ./misc/macosx_... files in the source package, it might help you.

Have a nice day,

Christian.
