Nor gcc.  Apple has been spending a lot of money
to improve gcc, and most of their patches are of
interest to everybody.

Sure, MacOSX isn't totally open source, but that
doesn't mean Apple isn't a good citizen.  They
give lots back.  In particular, they hired some
very bright lights to help with the tree-ssa work
which we're all benefitting from.

So lay off!
