<p>As Phil commented, this is likely mostly tied to X11. In fact,
grouping OSes together as "unix" fits poorly with X11, since macOS
is clearly a unix OS in most respects, but it does not use X11. We
have a bunch of ugly hacks in the build system to include X11 on
the "unix but not macOS" subset. I've been annoyed by it from time
to time, but not really come up with any better solution.</p>
