Apple's doing a lot of work under the hood to make OS X better for programming to multiple cores, including the cores in the GPU. I think a lot of this will be seeing the light of day in Snow Leopard, so maybe Adobe is waiting for that to do a serious rewrite.
Adobe's code is old. Really old. And there's lots of it. CS3 was about 80 million lines of code. Major features are rolled out over several release cycles, which means 2-4 years. In addition, Adobe's code is cross-platform which means Adobe won't use any of Apple's latest and fanciest additions to the OS. So don't get your hopes up.
