Seems their attitude didn't change a bit, doesn't it? That's the fairly
boiler-plate 'I hope you just go away' reply.

Your current best bet is looking at the Darwin source. If it's not in
there, they won't release it (for a variety of reasons, including 'we
didn't even write the driver').

Side note: BenH already uses the Darwin source for reference.
