I prefer using MacPorts http://www.macports.org/ for this sort of thing, and in fact there already is a port in MacPorts for Gambit 4.0b22. It's straightforward to turn this into a .pkg, too, with MacPorts, if you so desire: `port pkg gambit-c'. There are other similar package managers, like Fink and Nix, but my experience with MacPorts has been much better.
Worth noting in this context that users who don't already have macports installed (I don't, and I install quite a bit of unix software) will have to install that first before they can install gambit. Macports is, somewhat ironically, installed via a .pkg file:
<http://svn.macosforge.org/repository/macports/downloads/ MacPorts-1.4.0/MacPorts-1.4.0-10.4.dmg>
or via make:
<http://svn.macosforge.org/repository/macports/downloads/ MacPorts-1.4.0/MacPorts-1.4.0.tar.gz>
