If I want to make an OS X program as self-contained as possible to ease installation, what dynamic libraries can I expect everyone or most people to have? If I know that, I won't have to compile static libraries for everything.

+1  A: 

All functions listed in Single UNIX Specification V3 are available.

Obviously, all Cocoa frameworks are available as well. The exact contents depend on OS version.

How would you know the exact contents if you know the version?

You just tell Xcode which version you target and it will provide you with relevant frameworks. They are put is separate directories under /Developer main folder.
