It is possible that OSX generates a scroll event when the scroll bars are
automatically set when zooming around the cursor on a mouse wheel event.  This
occurs in EDA_DRAW_FRAME::AdjustScrollBars().  If this is the case you may have
to figure out a way to ignore the generated scroll event or prevent OSX from
generating the event.  Try using a debug version of the wxWidgets library and
turn on event tracing by setting the WXTRACE environment variable to
wxTrace_Messages to see what events get generated when you move the mouse wheel
and click the scroll bars.  If you see a scroll bar event when you zoom with
the mouse wheel, than that is likely the problem.  How to fix it is another issue.

The mouse wheel events are handled in common/drawpanel.cpp by:

757 void EDA_DRAW_PANEL::OnMouseWheel( wxMouseEvent& event )
