E17 is overall working well with OSX. There's one important bug that needs to 
be fixed before it's ready for a binary release.

On OSX, e17 crashes only on the first run after reboot. The "white rectangle of 
death" appears, and clicking "continue" a few times eventually brings up a 
working e17. However that's too buggy for a binary release.

Just to be clear, if I quit e17 and restart, no crash. If I reboot, it crashes 
again in the same place. The crash only happens on the 1st run after reboot, 
and is reproducible.

The gdb trace is here: http://pastebin.com/JzeA0xw6

The trace looks like something in mmx. If I compile ecore without mmx support, 
it crashes in the same place, but with equivalent non-mmx calls. That means the 
problem is probably higher up in the call stack, but I'm not sure where to look.

This bug has been around for a while and I have posted before. Posting again 
hoping someone can help take a look at it. I can #irc if someone wants.

If there's anything else useful I could capture pls let me know. I have 
valgrind, though I'm not sure how to effectively capture e17 in valgrind since 
it's never called directly - the wm is started with "enlightenment_start".
