I didn't say it was a prerequisite. I was merely pointing out that when
platform-specific bugs appear, people using the specific platform should
be helping if they want to actually encourage the fixing of these bugs.

OS X is only "a supported and important platform" if we have dedicated
core developers diagnosing or even fixing issues for it (like we
obviously have for Windows and Linux). Otherwise, I don't think we have
any moral obligation to support it.
