You will need around 100 MB of disk space for the source files and

It will not run on machines running Mac OS 8/9 with more than 512 MB
of physical or virtual memory. It does not have this restriction when
it is run under Mac OS X. But the usual 128MB buffer limit of a
32-bit Emacs still exists.
Under Mac OS 8/9, there is no support for building the LEIM directory.
However, it can be built on Mac OS X or another platform and
transferred to the Mac.
On Mac OS 8/9, to use the same icon as when Emacs is built on Windows
NT, define GNU_ICON in mac/src/Emacs.r. Currently Emacs uses a
generic application icon on the Mac OS X. A better looking one is
coming soon.
Under Mac OS Classic, there is no support for building the LEIM
directory. However, it can be built on Mac OS X or another platform
and transferred to the Mac.
On Mac OS X, installing the emacs files in /usr can cause issues with
