But NSAppKitVersionNumber doesn't seem (at least not according

Try using Gestalt() then to get the system version. You can search
the list
archives for details.
Actually, the Gestalt documentation specifically says to use the
/System/Library/CoreServices/SystemVersion.plist file.
Wow, I never would have believed it, but it does say that.
For years, the opposite was true--Gestalt was recommended above using
the SystemVersion plist. I thought older versions of OS X Server
lacked that file entirely (but our 10.4.2 Server has it).
I am going to ask in CarbonDev why this recommendation was made.
