I doubt that it would work, even if it was cross compiled from the any
source code version, other than the MacBSD source.  I too have a Q630, and
have been waiting for a version of MacBSD that _will_ run on it.  However,
due to the hardware that Apple puts in these things, It won't work without
custom OS code to handle the mac.
