version(OSX)

I just don't think darwin is a good idea, as Apple doesn't even use it. 
See http://developer.apple.com/unix/index.html, where "darwin" is 
clearly second string. It looks like Apple is pushing aside "darwin" in 
favor of "OSX".

Fortunately, (darwin) => (OSX) is a trivial global search/replace.
