I've already looked for that in the list archives and it seems this topic comes up about once a
year when some other package broke with the non-framework build. Changing the build does
not seem a particular problem, but was always declined as it would mean all (or a large number)
of the other Python-dependent packages would have to be fixed at the same time.
But I can of course bring this up for discussion again pointing out that the macosx backend support
is going to be discontinued.

Cheers,
