Personally, I wouldn't use a Mac for testing OS development (other than to test that it works on a Mac.)
I agree. There are lots and lots of minor changes to make it incompatible with a standard PC (non-standard PCI IDs and non-standard EFI firmware for example).

For starters (I think) you'll need a working USB stack to access the keyboard.
I can confirm that PS/2 emulation doesn't exists on Mac. And this isn't the only one, almost all of the usual PC hardware (which is emulated on most computers these days, like the PIT/RTC (HPET emulated), PIC (IOAPIC emulated) etc.) doesn't have the emulation turned on and therefore needs specific drivers.
