I'm not attached to 10.6, but if we can keep supporting it, I'd like to.
And for what it's worth, there are 11 places in nsterm.m with
version-specific code (unless I've missed some):
12 matches for "MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED" in buffer: nsterm.m
140:#if MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED >= MAC_OS_X_VERSION_10_7
157:#if MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED >= MAC_OS_X_VERSION_10_7
5567: MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED <= MAC_OS_X_VERSION_10_9
6329: MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED < MAC_OS_X_VERSION_10_7
7036: MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED <= MAC_OS_X_VERSION_10_9
7098: MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED <= MAC_OS_X_VERSION_10_9
7365:#if MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED >= MAC_OS_X_VERSION_10_7
7516: MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED >= MAC_OS_X_VERSION_10_9
7547: MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED <= MAC_OS_X_VERSION_10_9
8109:#if MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED >= MAC_OS_X_VERSION_10_9
8120:#endif /* MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED >= MAC_OS_X_VERSION_10_9 */
8327: MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED < MAC_OS_X_VERSION_10_7
which seems manageable. But if and when support for earlier macOSen
causes problems, then I'd have no objections removing support.

You could probably make your life easier by not supporting more
than Apple does. Eg on the net I read:
Apple is only supporting Mac OS X 10.9 – 10.11. Apple stopped
providing security updates for Mac OS 10.8 and earlier versions with
the release of Mac OS X 10.11 (El Capitan) in 2015.
version dependent code. Just dropping support for 10.6 would remove a
lot too.
I doubt Charles would like that, though, and he’s the only other
person regularly working on the NS port.
