Whatever we decide I think most of the changes that are in c-incpath.c
should be in darwin.c.

Frameworks arn't a fundamentally darwin-specific concept. They're a great way to clean up the filesystem by grouping headers together with their associated libraries. There's no reason why, say, a linux distribution couldn't adopt them (apart from inertia). Why preclude others from making use of this feature by putting it in a Darwin-specific file?
