In this documentation Darwin is all over the place.
Move up a directory, and it's OSX, OSX, OSX.
I can only seem to find Mac OS X, not OSX ?

I also wonder why it is OSX. Are versions prior to MacOS 10 (which is

All versions before Mac OS X 10.4 are unsupported, even though
you can make Mac OS X 10.3 limp along with an older GDC version*.
Mac OS 9 is flat out,

To me it's clear that Darwin is the core on which Mac OS X and iPhone OS are

surprised if in a few years it gets renamed to Mac OS XI, or something else,
because Mac OS X 10.10

Apple has made many operating systems besides OSX, so __APPLE__ is out.

Even if you strip underscores, OSX and Win32/64 still don't match

Then when the tenth versions came it happened to be built on a nix
