Originally I began with SQLite3 which turned out has locking issues over the network so I migrated to MySQL which seems to work well. My primary PC is my linux machine for which I built GNC from source with the MySQL backend.

That's Mac *maintainer*. There's only one. Sorry, no I won't. USB disks are cheap, get one and install Xcode there. Use your Snow Leopard machine, because if you build GnuCash on the Mountain Lion machine it won't work on Snow Leopard.
