Is this file unused?

It seems that the IE for Mac style is littered through:

http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/phase3/skins/monobook/main.css?revision=56937&view=markup

... with an interesting comment:

/*

** @import("IEMacFixes.css");
*/

Would it be acceptable to use a conditional include?

Alternatively, we could load the stylesheet at runtime with
JavaScript.  That approach is already being used for IE specific
JavaScript fixes.
