Yes, MacCvsX is using PowerPlant as it's underlying application
framework and there's about zero chance to make this run natively on
Intel :(
However, since cvsnt is a separate tool, it would be perfectly
possible to embed a Universal binary of the cvsnt tool + libs. That's
actually a good point - after all, it's the cvsnt tool that does most
of the 'real' work.

No, I haven't dived too much into this problem yet - I just
experienced once that MacCvsX wouldn't load the pserver tool and
realized it was due to a conflict between the library installed in /
usr/lib and the on inside the MacCvsX application package.
(The version included is 2.5.03 Build 2210 - that was the one I
started out with and it seems to do all the stuff MacCvs requires)
I don't really like the idea of a symbolic link inside the resources
folder, but maybe it would make sense to have a preferences checkbox
to use cvsnt from another location. MacCvs would then ignore the
built-in tool and just rely on the standard installation to be
'complete'. Sounds sensible...
