No, it is not. It's illegal to redistribute Apple fonts, just like Microsoft fonts. I'm the maintainer of the ttf-ms-win8 and did some research on that. AUR package should not contain download links for such fonts, take a look how I did it for my package.
This package source links: http://ompldr.org/vNXFlNA — illegal http://invisible-**files.googlecode.com/files/**ttf-mac-fonts.tar.gz<http://invisible-files.googlecode.com/files/ttf-mac-fonts.tar.gz> — illegal https://macbuntu.svn.**sourceforge.net/svnroot/**macbuntu/Macbuntu/fonts<https://macbuntu.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/macbuntu/Macbuntu/fonts> — illegal
On the other way, the approach of https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/tt/ttf-mac-fonts/PKGBUILD and https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/tt/ttf-mac/PKGBUILD is good. No sources in AUR.
So one definetely should merge and rework them to provide great Apple fonts package, but I don't have Mac and cannon do it myself.

So one can easily pirate Apple fonts now? Nicely done!

If this is a legal download I'm utmost interested in installing and trying this package.
Wait, what? Direct links are illegal, but an svn checkout to the same Macbuntu repo is legal? Am I missing something?
