Ok.  There are several Mac users here, and I'm one of them who does builds quite frequently.

One suggestion:  Use Macports or Fink to get all of the dependencies installed, and there are quite a few.
Second suggestion:  As I stated several times, please get the latest version of winetricks.  Dan Kegel or Austin English releases one about every two weeks, on the opposite weekend from a Wine release.  In some cases, the files are moved or updated, and Microsoft is famous for this, and an older version of winetricks will error when checking the sha1 value.
Third suggestion:  Update to Snow Leopard, if you can.  Leopard has issues that were addressed in Snow Leopard and Snow Leopard is up to its sixth update.  Apple will soon drop non-security update support for Leopard as well.

Have you looked at installing XQuartz 2.6.0 (or later) as the X11 server product for Leopard has several missing functions and is at OpenGL 1.2 (or earlier) and is not fully compatible with Wine?

Last, can you advise which product you are trying to download with winetricks is giving you the sha1sum error?
