You can use the bchunk, which should be in MacPorts (alternatives are: bin2iso and isodump), to convert that .bin/.cue pair to .iso, and then mount ISO file. With bchunk, the command (run in console) would be
bchunk image.bin image.cue image.iso
There's also ccd2iso, but I believe it doesn't support .bin files - only .img.
Further, I'll be talking from a Linux perspective, but as long as Mac is a FreeBSD derivative, it may work. You may want to use the console mount command (run man mount to read the manual) together with cdfs or cdemu. These will require lots of manuals reading and console love, and success will depend on what kind of kernel Macs use. Only try this as a last, really-desperate method.
If you have Toast, add the bin file in Toast and save as image .toast file. Rename .toast extension to .dmg. Double-click to mount on desktop and copy content to hard drive.
Ctrl + click on the .bin file then select Open With -> Disc Utility.
cabextract is a package that provides utilities for using .bin files. It's available through MacPorts. It allows you to extract files from Microsoft cabinet files.
