Have you tried turning off the "Use the F1-F12 keys to control
software features" option in the Keyboard tab of the Keyboard & Mouse
preferences pane? (I *think* you want to turn it off. It's kind of
confusing because the "helpful" text below says that if you turn it
on you can use those keys to control *hardware* featrures.)

On the PC, with MSVC, I can just use fkeys to build and step
through my code. it makes debugging and coding a bit easier.
On the Mac, firstly it's not possible cos the fkeys are already
used, and secondly... we can't really change the keycodes for menus.
Just wondering.
If there was some way to get handy fkey access in Xcode, to build,
run, continue, step out, step over, step into, that would be great.
