Are you likely to either build AOSP on it or do toybox development on it? :)

I can't even regression test mac binaries right now, and the only actually
deployed macos use case is "AOSP prebuilts" which are Elliott's call where they
need to run. It would be nice to support it more, but personally I put fleshing
out FreeBSD support higher on the list, on the theory I've occasionally gotten a
BSD development environment working under KVM and multiple hobbyist BSD
developers have posted to the list. And getting Linux/Android to 1.0 comes
before any of that. :)
