   The big problem is that to be useful to Mac programs, you must duplicate
   the support software in Apple's ROMs.  From scratch, not by copying the
   ones out of a Mac -- doing it by copying is a copyright violation, and
   Apple will get you for that.  This is not a small job.

Also, note that several of the algorithms Apple uses (in particular for
"region" manipulation) are patented, and thus using equivalent algorithms
is (probably) a violation of patent law.  You'd have to figure out your
own ways to handle QuickDraw, in essence.
