I don't know whether Cirrus is our long-term plan for doing
CI of OSX (maybe we'll be using Gitlab and some runner on an
OSX platform??), but as a general point: since OSX is one of
the non-Linux hosts it's therefore worth making sure our
compile-coverage is as wide as possible, not narrow. It's
safe(r) to have narrow coverage of x86-Linux because people
catch issues with that anyway, but it's exactly the less
common platforms like OSX, the BSDs, odd architectures that
we want to be compile/make-check testing as much of our code
as possible.
