hmm.. doesn't sound like a big problem to me but i will take your word for 
it.
Sounds like leaving out OS X is as misleading as leaving it in.

What if i change MacOS X (gcc) to MacOS X (gcc, X11),
can you live with that?, does that even make sense?

Since i'm not familiar with OS X i will follow your recommendation on this.
