FWIW, the OS identification for mac os x (I believe the mac stuff was pre- os x) is "darwin". Like the cross-compiler is x86-64-apple-darwinN-gcc . c.f. x86_64-redhat-linux-gcc, etc.

N is 14 currently, I think.

I agree with Alex suggestion "do not touch mac/ folder, but add new folder,
like cocoa/". I'm afraid the lifetime of Cocoa might be shorter than GDI
(although Cocoa is younger than GDI), the naming like "mac/" for Cocoa is
not the best option.

P.S.
mac/cocoa/ might be acceptable, but slightly too complex.
