It would be helpful if you or someone else could provide a patch versus
stock 2.2.12 (and future versions) for needed Mac fixes. I did the last
upload the powerpc 2.2.12 patch and images, but my native platform is
PReP so I have no way of knowing what are the appropriate patches to include
for Mac.
I'm planning on doing another set of images shortly (since we've done some
IDE fixes on PReP), so I could include any Mac support in the stock images
at that time.
