How would we handle this in configure.ac other than hardcoding a check for MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET and having a bunch of non-mac users have to maintain a list of which Mac versions do and do not support this function instead of relying on the autotools check? (Hint: a proposed patch is a lot more understandable than 100 lines of arguing.)</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
