I forgot about cocoa, and yes, some changes are required.
I am afraid I don't know much about it and I don't have any MacOS so I
may not be the right person do it.

In any case I wrote a simple patch that probably won't even compile but
will give you an idea about what has to be done.
I am both attaching the patch to this email and commenting it inline so
that I can better explain the reason behind each change.

The new resize callback interface signature is changed: now the only
argument is DisplayState, because is the backend that is supposed to set the
the properties in the DisplayState structure.

Again we don't have to set any property in ds anymore, the backend does
that for us.
data is already allocated and width, height, linesize already set.

This is the critical part where we ask cocoa to do any needed conversions
between the source image format given by the backend and the real
display format.
In order to do this we call CGImageCreate with the image source
properties from DisplayState.
>From a little googling it seems to me that CGImageCreate and
CGContextDrawImage are able to handle the conversions.

These changes are needed to support the new
register_displaychangelistener interface, they shouldn't need any
explanation.

It could also be useful to look at the changes I made to vnc.c and sdl.c
in the third patch.

Please ask if you need anything else.
