Hi Eric,

According to the article, they admittedly used private APIs which is
explicitly forbidden in Apple's license terms. I don't believe getenv
or any ANSI C function is considered private. Private stuff is usually
proprietary Apple APIs hidden away and undocumented which you have to
go out of your way to use. I can't imagine OSG would hit any of these
either by accident or on purpose.

I understand. I just thought calls named "_NSGetEnviron" and "exc_server" (those are the calls they refer to in the article) sounded like "get some environment variable" and some threading functions, so I thought it might be possible that the low-level implementations of some functions might use them without us being aware of it...

But if the likeliness of that happening is close to null, that's great.

J-S
