I think you make very good points. I also think that we all agree that we do 
need to work towards better supporting the coming primarily non-Intel Mac 
world. I would rather put it that there are cross-compiling scenarios that were 
never supported before (but also not necessarily fully documented as such) but 
may have worked coincidentally some of the time; moving forward, we need to 
identify the important scenarios and make sure we fully support them. We're not 
there yet but I have some ideas on how to do that which I will try to get 
written down soon.
