[Unison-hackers] MAC OS issue ... only with the GUI version

[Benjamin Pierce]

Sigh -- sounds like our latest attempt at addressing this issue did  
not do the trick.

Unfortunately, I'm not sure this is fixable in the short term: Trevor  
and Ben are the only ones that currently understand the OSX GUI and  
they are both very busy with other things right now.

It may be possible to roll back to a previous version of the GUI code  
(somewhere around r119 in the svn repository), but even this will  
take some work, and I am swamped now with the beginning of the  
semester.  For the moment, I think the only solution is to tear down  
the OSX GUI binaries and advertise Unison as text-only (or GTK2- 
based, if someone is willing to build it) under OSX.
