I think I remember the main dev mentioning getting rid of the mac specific code wasn't that difficult, but don't quote me on that.

Especially given the source code was for the PowerPC Macintosh version.
Part of the reason DOOM was so easy to port to other platforms was because the source code was for the DOS version. Many programmers had experience with DOS and a lot of DOOM's source is portable/platform independent C code.
My understanding of the SS1 source release is it's a labyrinth of arcane Macintosh code.

I must admit, when the source code for the game was released, I did expect the hardcore fans to eventually create a sort of all-in-one package, with a fully functional Windows version that including all sorts of optional new or improved functions, higher quality textures, an option to use fan-enhanced soundtrack, a virtual reality option (System Shock would be great in VR), and whatever else talented fans could think of that would enhance the overall package.

that said, looks like one guy is (finally) aiming to do that; https://github.com/MeeperTheGreat99/systemshock-enhanced/releases
I'm hoping his next release will have FMsel integrated, maybe even support for higher resolutions (I'm pushing things around a bit behind the scenes, as I tend to). the plan is to have it integrated into SSPtool once the few necessary features are in (cfgs finally in the game root now, modern resolution support would be very nice but no idea whether this is going to be in the next build, and SS2 UI interactions would be amazing but zero idea about that).
