As per the PR audit trail, there is no reason to retain this special-
casing for Darwin.
(given that current GCC is not build-able using Darwin toolsets of
the vintage that required the case).
Mike has OK'd this off-list - but, since Ralf commented on the
previous version, I'd like to give him the opportunity to comment
here.
OK for trunk?
