But shouldn't these differences be handled by #ifdef things in 
makefiles? As Oracle will be officially supporting Mac releases, I 
thought either bsd-port or mac-port will be merged into a single jdk7 
forest so that even myself working on TL can start developing on a Mac 
machine.

In fact, why start this mac-port at all? Make & team can push their 
changes directly to bsd-port now.

Thanks
Max
