Are we the reason Apple isn't helping us?

I just came across this, and I think I see where the root of the problem lies.

You need to be familiar with Apple's corporate culture to understand
what Jeremy is saying.  Apple has very strict non-disclosure policies
with respect to unreleased products.  What Jeremy is saying here is
that Wine has a compile conflict with an upcoming Apple product
(probably a version of Xcode, but possibly a version of MacOS), but he
can't say it outright without risking incurring the wrath of Apple.
