Darwin is OSX minus the GUI (Aqua), basically. I know that's an over-simplification, but most of teh user interface is closed source. Therefore, no x86 port.
It could be done if Apple wanted to, but they don't.
Well, it sort of depends, but the cable I have for my siemens phone has a Prolific data chip in it. It seems to be the most common for data cables. The Prolific site is down, but try this to download the drivers for OS X. I know that's not a cell cable in the picture, but it's the same controller chip.

I'm on a dual-USB ibook (G3, 500mhz, 640mb RAM) running Panther.
10.1 was unusable due to speed, so I waited until Panther.
Hey, other than missing some of the nifty visual effects, it runs great. Never had a crash bring the system down.
Throw it on the iBook. It works great.
