VirtualBox is pretty solid on Mac. While I haven't tried it on Mac, on Windoze the `official` VMWare image works flawlessly in VirtualBox so you don't even need to setup your own environment, just plug and play, and I see no reason why should it be otherwise on Mac as well (my friend is running Ubuntu on his Mac through VirtualBox and have had no issues with it).

You will have to use some sort of VM/emu if you are to target ARMEL devices on OS X anyway...
