Comment #65 on issue 847 by [email protected]: [Mac] [Safari 4] [Snow Leopard] Gears not working Safari 4 - Snow Leopard

Folks, take a hint from Issue 335, and use the issue tracker to share workarounds, or patches. If your comment doesn't substantively help solve this issue, it doesn't belong here. This project has a mailing list, and that's the proper place for your hopes,
your fears, your burning questions, and your idle ruminations.

It might seem counter-intuitive, but adding unproductive comments actually makes it less likely that this issue will be fixed. This is an open-source project. Yes, the committers are Googlers, but there's nothing stopping you from checking out the code and trying to fix this issue. In fact, someone started to do just that @40, but left @46 because of your "self-important whining." With the Gears Team seemingly focused on Windows-related issues, it's all the more important that issues like this one be attractive for outside
developers to solve.

In the spirit of taking my own advice, I checked out the source and tried to build it. I agree with the earlier comments @40, @41, @46, and @64. Scripting Additions are the new Input Manager, and it's the way to go for injecting code into 64-bit processes. Before I even started looking at the Input Manager code, however, I tried using Xcode to build the project. It didn't work, so I
updated the Xcode project and submitted a patch in Issue 984.
