I haven't been maintaining it for the past few releases because there were too 
many instances of developers continuing to assume that mac == cocoa == bundled 
app.  With every release, there seemed to be more such bugs introduced than 
were fixed, and the patch-set grew too unwieldy.  If someone else is interested 
in co-maintaining it, I'd be willing to assist, but the tide was just too much 
for me to deal with alone =(

I think there are a few with bug reports filed, so I'd start by searching 
bugzilla to see which bugs I filed which are not yet closed, apply those 
changes, and just whack-a-mole.
