As I understand it, mostly library locations and other similarly trivial but
not immediately obvious minor changes. Also, I don't think autoconf
recognizes Mac OS X Server yet.
MOSX (like the forthcoming Mac OS X, and Apple's open-source Darwin OS) has a
BSD compatibility layer, but it's not designed to allow transparent
recompilation of BSD sources. There are a couple of projects underway to
change that, probably the most high-profile being the InfoMagic/TwinForces
collaboration, Missing Link. Their manifesto is good reading:

I work for apple, but not in engineering.
