MacPorts itself still runs on Mac OS X 10.4 and later and we do still have a
number of users using older systems. More so than with other operating systems,
I think, Mac users care about support for older OS versions because Apple often
arbitrarily decides that they will not allow newer OS versions to be installed
on older computers. So my 2 cents is that I would appreciate it if gnulib
maintained compatibility with older systems. I said the same in the recent
thread on this mailing list where we were trying to address a gnulib bug with
determining the max path length that affects Mac OS X 10.5 systems.
