This is most likely a CFM shared library. You cannot link with it using Xcode, but you can write code that dynamically loads it and calls its entry points, using Apple's sample code CFM_MachO_CFM.

If it is a CFM shared library and you want to access it from a Mach-o application then the following article that I wrote recently might be of some help to you:

http://cutterpillow.com/content/view/24/1/

It describes how to go from Mach-o -> CFM -> Mach-o (likely what you need to do) which is the opposite of how the CFM_MachO_CFM sample works. That is, I explain how to access a CFM library from a Mach-o application while the CFM_MachO_CFM sample describes how to access a Mach-o library from a CFM application. Most of the steps are the same, but there are a few differences.

This library will not work on an Intel-based Mac.

It would work under Rosetta, but you could never use a CFM library with a native Intel application.
