I'm not knowledgeable enough to argue a position on the Qt vs wxWidgets
comparison (there's plenty of discussion elsewhere) but I will correct some
inaccuracies implied in Andreas's post. wxWidgets/Mac is built on Carbon;
there's a Cocoa version (wxCocoa) available, albeit still in development;
and the wxWidgets apps I've seen (e.g., Audacity,
http://audacity.sourceforge.net/) sure look like "real" Mac apps.
