- Uh oh... I can just hear FSF now... "Slowly I turned... Inch by inch, step by
- step I crept..." But that's another humorous skit.

- Unless you can find a way to get apple to 1) stop making software patents,
- 2) stop suing on the basis of look-and-feel and 3) make a commitment that
- they won't ever do it again, there will be no ports of GCC to the Macintosh
- supported by GCC's authors. Even if apple does all three above, there _still_
- might not be an officially supported port.

- To FSF: _Exactly_ what else will it take?
