I've setup a brew tap to easily install bitcoind and bitcoind-next (as well as armory and soon electrum).

Code:
brew tap homebrew/versions #for berkeleydb-4
brew tap WyseNynja/bitcoin
brew install --HEAD wysenynja/bitcoin/bitcoind-next-test

As for coin control, i surely hope this will be picked up in the main client, it's an important feature imho, i use it on a regular basis.
It's been unmaintained for so long that it really needs a rewrite at this point. Perhaps you can recruit someone with a bounty?

p2pool tells me the version of bitcoin is too old, need at least 0.5 xD (next-test)
You need a newer version of p2pool with BIP22 support. I don't know if forrestv has released one yet.

Coin control is abandoned?  Just for the next version or for good?
Depends on when/if someone steps up to take care of it.

Thanks i'll just use a different pc to mess around with your version for now since i have the latest p2pool software.

next is a branch of the mainline bitcoind & Bitcoin-Qt with only pull requests planned for the next version (right now, 0.7) merged into it, to aid in testing them. This branch can be used to test what will likely become 0.7rc1 very soon.

next-test is a branch of the mainline bitcoind & Bitcoin-Qt with as many pull requests merged as possible, to aid in testing them. This branch can be used to test many pull requests in your daily Bitcoin use.
