Yup, it was just posted to MaUpdate as well:

This isn't official, though, is it? The application icon doesn't match the PC one and it apparently can read its preferences from the Library instead of a standard .config file like the PC (and Lamer0's build). I just tested that it still reads a -writeconf produced dosbox.conf normally, though.
I've noticed that both Lamer0's and this "punk" version uses different keyboard layouts, but none of the fully corresponds to my Macbook Pro's actual keyboard layout (Swedish).
Also, a weird thing is that both versions had a delay of about 2-3 seconds when starting them, but that has disappeared now.
Finally, and this is to me really weird now: At 12000 cycles, normal core, Dosbox takes 70% steady on OS X, and 50-70% on my 3200+ Windows XP machine running the same game. Yet, the OS X version sound stutters like crazy and runs very slowly!
Perhaps the a single core of the 1.83ghz core duo isn't faster than an AMD 3200+ XP cpu, I will have to test this when I install boot camp.
But as I was testing this, suddenly the game I was testing began crashing like mad using the dynamic core on that "punk" version, while it runs fine on lamer0's version!
Must test further...
