 Yeah, probably not. 

 I get the impression that Apple is working with the GNU  folk on the above
system  though

{see the top link here: http://www.gnu-darwin.org/index.php?page=community }

 It would be in their best interests to open up development to the rest of the
world. You never know what may happen in the future.

 I may build a machine to run this system... It looks like it may have a lot of
potential. It's a sort of "best of all possible technologies" thing.
