OSX comprises parts of FreeBSD (Unix), Part NeXT (dead ex-Jobs
software/hardware company, like apple, just smaller), and Part other stuff.
Apple are pulling together a number of different open-source cores, including
stuff spawned from the Linux world.
OSX is not running on a Linux Kernel.

OS-X is a derivative of Unix, not Linux.
The fact that they might appear functionally similar belies the fact that
Linus created a completely new Operating System.

In all fairness they are probably just stopping ATI from stealing

drivers for that anyhoo...
It would be nice if the drivers are open source, but it shouldn't
