So, we could make a similar decision to say that Mac OS X is only supported to a certain extent, essentially lowering the bar on what needs to work under it (not saying that this is a bad thing). We could even do things like disable certain tests under OS X if we don't hold ourselves to that level. I'm not judging where that level should be - I think there's a wide range of acceptable answers as long as our pick is stated.
