Or to enlist a bunch of linux hosts to compile for OS X.

I have no experience using Mac OS X to compile Linux executables. I don’t know if that would work. I would be extremely surprised if you could compile Mac OS X executables on Linux since you need not only the clang compiler but also all the Mac OS X libraries and frameworks, some of which are proprietary and would not be available on Linux.
