Yeah, I'm afraid so.

I admit to not keeping up with it all, either. With xdvipdfmx the  
default in the upcoming v0.997, I think things will start to stabilise  
considerably.

The SVN repository does contain all of the XeLaTeX packages. In fact,  
I use the SVN repository directly for my XeLaTeX development, so it's  
often ahead of the versions I upload to CTAN.

XeTeX itself compiles fine for me on a standard Leopard installation  
with the developer tools. I still have trouble compiling xdvipdfmx but  
I find that has never been a problem. (All of the helpful replies the  
other month were unfortunately not enough for me, but I realised I  
didn't need a new version of xdvipdfmx to fix my issue at the time.)

Cheers,
Will
