On Lazarus the platform-specific part is completely isolated from the
platform-indenpendent part.
So you can have win32/64, Windows CE, a Gtk 1, Gtk 2, Qt 4, Carbon,
fpGUI (and maybe Cocoa on the future) backends. At compilation time
you choose one of them and the whole framework links to it.
It's not necessary to remove any Carbon code to start a Cocoa backend.
They work independently.
The LCL (Lazarus Component Library) is very well designed, and
scalable, so you can start implementing just a Form, a Button and a
Label for one particular backend, and that will work just fine. And
later you can add other things you need.
