Comment (by jonesc@…):

 If it works on OS X 10.7 then yes, please make it the default.

 *However*, please make sure you test python support. So install with one
 of the python variants, +python27 say, then from the python prompt verify
 you can import ROOT and create a TCanvas() properly. i.e. at the prompt

 {{{
 > import ROOT
 > ROOT.TCanvas()
 }}}

 If you see a window, it works...

 This used to be an issue with older ROOT releases when the cocoa variant
 was enabled, which was primarily why I never made it the default. It works
 fine on OSX10.9 now (I haven't tested 10.8, I only personally have 10.9,
 but upstream confirm it works OK as well).

 This needs to work before I am happy to make it the default on anything
 older.

 cheers Chris
