Sure, but in terms of supporting our 10.4 customers (which is a significant 
number for us), it seems like we're out of luck wrt to turning a NSFont* into a 
CGFontRef (or namely, creating a CGFontRef from standard attributes).  No doubt 
that there's a twisty and windy way to create a CGFontRef from a font name and 
set of attribs, but I have been unsuccessful thus far with 
CGFontCreateCopyWithVariations() and I've been unable to find any sample code 
that does so (either in ADC or in google).

Oh well, but thanks for your thoughts and suggestions!
