from the runtime API is indeed the one of the Apple runtime. Then,
if someone makes
a change to the GNU runtime API making it incompatible with the
Apple one, and adds
a testcase for it (assuming all changes come with a testcase), they
would notice
when the test runs on the Apple runtime, as it would fail there.
seems like a good idea...
... shouldn't be too hard to arrange .. maybe give it a spin after Xmas.
