MacOS X < 10.6 had an undocumented behavior concerning execve(2)
inside a threaded process. If a process tried to call execve(2) and
had more than one active thread, the kernel returned ENOTSUP. So we
have to either fork(2) or vfork(2) before calling execve(2) to make
sure the caller is single-threaded as otherwise the application fails
to restart itself.
explicit request a while back. (But use the current version.)
PR 48845.
I don't remember the PR number for the original request but it can be
tracked down if necessary.
The preprocessor macro XP_MACOSX is misused everywhere. They tend to
say "#if defined(XP_MACOSX)" to actually mean
"#if defined(MOZ_WIDGET_COCOA)". It's okay to equate XP_MACOSX with
XP_DARWIN but equating it with MOZ_WIDGET_COCOA is just wrong. As a
result, cairo-gtk2 build on Darwin is completely broken and needs
heavy patching. Ideally they should be fixed individually but that
will be an extremely hard work, so don't define XP_MACOSX for now.
Do it for all packages that
* mention perl, or
* have a directory name starting with p5-*, or
* depend on a package starting with p5-
like last time, for 5.18, where this didn't lead to complaints.
Let me know if you have any this time.

Use versioned_dependencies.mk where applicable.
Use REPLACE_PYTHON instead of handcoded alternatives, where applicable.
Reorder Makefile sections into standard order, where applicable.
Remove PYTHON_VERSIONS_INCLUDE_3X lines since that will be default

Whitespace cleanups and other nits corrected, where necessary.
