Conversely, the tinc developers come from a UNIX background and don't
have the time to learn MacOS. The reason tinc is supported on MacOS/X
and Windows 2000/XP is that there are GNU environments for those
platforms, which allows us to compile tinc without too much extra
effort.

We don't want dummies :).
