Comment (by mojca):

 I agree that we should fix the Qt4 PortGroup to not raise a parse error. I
 also realized that we probably have a global problem of using
 `${os.major}` checks all over the place to do some conditional checks on
 macOS version number, and I assume this would also affect Linux in strange
 ways. If a port only works on 10.13 and newer, the "if" statement checking
 for `${os.major}` being high enough would probably evaluate to false on
 Linux.
