I really object to darwin being a primary platform until it is
actually possible to build it on a released darwin system without

It seems every couple weeks something new is broken in the configure
so that you have to add another flag.

Really, on our primary platforms, we should just be able to run
configure and build.

I'm going to pass along this feedback to the SC. However, I still think we should put IA32 Darwin on the primary platform list for 4.3. If it's not well maintained for 4.3, then when it come time to do that release, we'll not worry too much about it.
