If you just need to map address to symbols, use atos or gdb. There are _many_ details that make doing this yourself quite difficult.

As stated by Jonas, gdb can read dSYM files programatically to use the contents for debugging. There's also libdwarf+dwarfdump -- dwarfdump ships with OSX -- libdwarf provides a non BFD library for parsing dwarf data. The BFD stuff is pretty embedded in gdb so getting library-style access to it would probably require more monkeywrenching than libdwarf -- although vanilla libdwarf might require it's own monkeywrenching to get it to play friendly with macho.
Here's a few URLs that may assist you:
is pretty good although ELF centric. The producer API documentation is more comprehensive than the libdwarf stock docs and was very useful for me.
For source check out: dwarf2read.c in gdb/bfd/
Also check out 'dsymutil' which can extract symbol tables and produce dSYM files
