The OS X binary is for PowerPC.

By default Connector/MXJ ships with the following platforms:

 * Linux, x86 (statically linked glibc)
 * Mac OS X, PPC (version 10.3 & up)
 * Windows, x86 (NT/XP/2003 ... not: 95/98/ME/CE)
 * Solaris, Sparc (versions 9 & up; future version will run on Solaris 8
and up)

However, if additional platforms are required, it isn't very hard to add
binaries for other platforms to the connector-mxj jar file. 

In short there is a version directory in the jar file (Connector/MXJ
ships with 4.1.13, the 5.0 branch ships with MySQL 5.0 by default).
Under that directory are sub-directories for each platform. The
directory names are determined by using Java system properties "os.name"
and "os.arch" separated by a hyphen. The 5.0 branch replaces spaces with
underscores. In this directory the mysqld binary is places, along with a
text file with the version information.

If you wish to alter the supported platforms for your uses, we'll be
happy to help with that.

We distribute the most common case, but we know not everyone's needs are
the same. For instance, one client added SunOS-x86, one of our support
guys runs BSD on his personal machine and added a binary for that, one
user stripped out the non-windows binaries. We can help you configure it
for your individual needs.
