I think I've got it running now.  The mac cluster was 7.4.3, and the  
linux machine was 7.5.3.
I switched both over to 7.5.3 and added this to my condor_config:
OPSYS = OSX
ARCH = INTEL

OSX_BIN = /path/to/osx/bin
DAGMAN_CONDOR_SUBMIT_EXE = $(OSX_BIN)/condor_submit
DAGMAN_CONDOR_RM_EXE = $(OSX_BIN)/condor_rm

and then passed this on the command line:
condor_submit_dag -dagman /path/to/osx/bin/condor_dagman


It seems to work now.
cool...
