Mac usage

[Jonathan Gibbons]

OK, here's a question I probably shouldn't ask because I'm not sure I  
want to know the answer ...

OpenJDK is currently targetted at the Solaris, Windows and Linux  
platforms. Mac is not a supported platform for OpenJDK. But the  
langtools component is pure Java and has had a somewhat more liberal  
notion of platform.

But, in trying out langtools on the Mac, I've run into some issues,  
such as the different organization Apple's Java product, most  
recently, the names of the subdirectories under ${JAVA_HOME}.

So, I'm wondering how much interest/demand there is for working on  
the compiler on a Mac platform.  I know there are folk out there that  
like the Mac -- I'm beginning to like it too, apart from hiccups like  
this. Depending on the response, I'll be able to gauge the priority  
of fixes for the issues that arise.
