Can you cite a part of the MacApp license agreement that might lead to
problems?  I don't know of any clause that would contaminate your source
code.  While it may say that you cannot port MacApp to another platform,
you are always free to take your source code and port that.  

If by contaminate you mean that you write code that works with MacApp,
which itself can't be ported, then any Mac application would be
contaminated.
