They're all hacks and kluges to make libc++ work better on 10.6, except the change the libc++'s makefile (to not chown(8) the just-installed headers to root:wheel). I made that one so I can install the headers for use in Clang's tests as part of a self-host build.

Could you elaborate on why 10.6 patches wouldn't be accepted? I'm using it partially because I need a box that can still run PPC. Bootstrapping Clang and thus lld is my goal for it.
