the fact that tarballs are not usable for public consumption as you explained

yes, that bug (which has not yet a tested/committed fix) will prevent 3.1.0 to
build in MacOS X 10.5.

at least from the sources released, it seems that the last darwin doesn't have
libkvm anymore, and the fact that the public interface to it (kvm.h) is
missing, might mean that a different approach is needed going forward to keep
support for darwin in libmetrics.

I have no access to any Apple proprietary OS or hardware, but I suspect that
the new modular architecture and the need to make all symbols public that
broke cygwin, probably could be affecting MacOS X as well.
