Ben, Aquamacs isn't the only option for Emacs on Mac OS X, it's actually
the worst option for Emacs on Mac OS X, IMHO.

Either build a Carbon Emacs 22.3 from macports, or download one of the
Emacs 23 pre-release builds from http://porkrind.org/emacs/.

Personally, I use Emacs built from macports:

  $ sudo port install emacs +atsui +carbon

Aquamacs is a highly altered version of Carbon Emacs, meant to act more
like a Mac application.  My problem with it is that it does so at the
cost of normal Emacs functionality.

But don't take my word for it, hop on #emacs and ask there ;)
