Obviously things won't work perfectly (if at all) for things like GUI

I myself have used the generator to build LLVM/Clang on a Mac and
I know a few people who do that regularly.  I don't think we should
exclude an entire platform just because things won't work for a subset
of users, especially when it is easy to detect such cases and we can
warn/error out.
GUI on Mac is a big part of Mac users. This means no Qt application will work. It is a pretty big hole for that platform...
