Although as Alex explains, that isn't really Travis CI's *fault* -
it's an artifact of the licensing design for macOS being generally
hostile to the "dynamic worker pool" model typically used for
pre-merge CI infrastructure management.

macOS is much more amenable to the post-commit model we use for the
buildbot fleet, since we're not trying to manage an elastic pool of
machines there - we have a static set of machines that work through
the merged commits.

Cheers,
NIck.
