+1 on merging soon.  The generator will be disabled on Windows by
default so there is no risk of Windows users accidentally trying to
use it.  Most of the test failures on the Mac relate to Mac specific
targets (frameworks/bundles/apps) which I think most portable
applications can survive without, and in any case we can document
this missing feature in a release note or perhaps have the Ninja
generator print an error if it sees one of these targets.
