ec10bce9ac Rename OS X to macOS to follow Apple's new naming
Eric Brown: PR pkg/52567: Readme.MacOSX is out of date

Additional changes by me: don't mention that the file isn't README.OSX
due to OS X being a different name, because the new name macOS makes
the filename less confusing.

aae1471228 Revise ABI discussion
Substantially revise the ABI 32/64 discussion, separating the
close-in-time changes about the default ABI vs how it is encoded.
Thanks to jperkin for off-list clarifications.

c90e95da40 Update notes on versions.
Add pointer to a pkgsrc-bulk message about a 10.4 powerpc build, and
therefore drop notion that there are no 10.4 users.

83e12739b4 Rototiil versions section
Replace and simplify the versions section.  Drop notion of
supported/deprecated.  Explain why people run specific old versions.
Assert that there are no 10.4 pkgsrc users, and very few 10.5.  Keep
notion that PRs for <= 10.5 without fixes can be closed without
fixing.

Explain Darwin vs OS X.  Point to PureDarwin.  Explain that pkgsrc for
Darwin is really for OSX and invite doc patches.

Make a few minor edits.

It remains for someone to explain more clearly the issue of
broken/missing SDKs in 10.11 and command line tools.

As discussed on tech-pkg, with input from jperkin and tron.

01012f32b6 Make assorted minor updates
- Remove information about older versions of pkgsrc.
- Note that /usr/include is gone and that there are SDKs
- Add hazy explanation of the missing SDK/command-line-tools issue.
- Add 10.11 (but do not change deprecation status of anything).
- Clarify (but do not try to update for current reality) the 10.6/10.9
  bulk build descriptions.

aebfc1d012 Explain problems with sed.
Basically: 10.9's sed is broken, bootstrap works around this via nbsed
on 10.9, and therefore while a 10.6 boostrap's binaries will *run* on
10.9, one can't reliably build new packages.

(Thanks to jperkin@ for pointing this out.)

456d32aefe Describe levels of likely support for various versions of OS X, based
on consensus of pkgsrc developers from private discussion.

Essentially 10.3 and below will not be allowed to clutter the PR db,
10.4 is iffy, and 10.5 and 10.6 are normal.

61445a3327 It's been a couple years since the pkgsrc repository was modified
to support being checked out on case-insensitive file systems, and
many bulk builds have been done since then. Remove verbiage on this
subject, since nobody needs to concern themselves with it anymore,
and retire the associated script to create a suitable disk image.

(Similar changes to the Guide will follow shortly.)
