I understand that it is probably possible to get nearly any set of bindings out of it, but what I want are the bindings that have been common for X11 based emacs primarily, (which largely overlap carbon emacs, which was a fine port, imo), and most specifically the location of the meta key.

You turn off osx-key-mode.
I fail to see why that is not a "simple approach".

Modifier keys are set in the Options menu or via Emacs customization variables (ns-*-modifier), just like in Emacs 23.
