BIND 10 tests on MacOS X automatically (using Clang++ and G++) over 2500 
times since I enabled it in January 2011. I think some of our developers 
use Mac OS X as primary platform. We have over 50 unit tests focusing on 
our logging plus higher level feature tests using the logging output. (I 
can point you to details later.)

Do you have any log4cplus test suite you'd like us to also run?

Our only problem noticed on MacOS X only is the ^@ null characters 
sometimes found in the output. http://bind10.isc.org/ticket/1629 We will 
do a temporary instrumented version that detects the Ctrl-@ and aborts 
so we can track down where this comes from. (This is work is targetted 
for our current two week sprint.)

(By the way, my reply is not to suggest others don't consider the 
original request. Yes please someone be the MacOSX champion.)
