But that won't follow Apple nomenclature. The gestalt constants for 
getting those three numbers are: gestaltSystemVersionMajor, 
gestaltSystemVersionMinor, and gestaltSystemVersionBugFix. I don't 
think it'd be wise to shift the names just because Apple marketing has 
decided to stall the major number for a decade or more.
