Comment (by devans@…):

 pixilla has dropped maintainership of `p5-mac-growl` in r131395, so I
 guess that makes 4-0 for dropping `p5-mac-carbon` and dependents.

 Looking at the documentation for p5-macosx-file
 {{{
 As of Mac OS X v10.4 (Tiger), most of these operations with resource fork
 are supported by the ordinary (cp|mv|rsync). If you are looking for psync,
 you may as well consider using rsync -E instead.
 }}}

 Based on this and its 32 bit nature, I would nuke this one too except that
 PsyncX, maintained by ryandesign depends on it.  Are you still using this,
 Ryan?
