As I said in
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2008-03/msg00419.html, I
don't have a plan to develop the Carbon (not Carbon+AppKit) port of
Emacs 23.

The breakage of the Carbon port is definitely NOT a reason.  Well, one
of the reasons would be that I found some changes that are totally
unrelated to multi-tty.  Another reason is no clear explanation given
about preloading term/*-win.

Yes, of course.  But some level of carefulness would be expected for
those who have a write access, I think.
