__MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MIN_REQUIRED and __MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED are
available in 10.6 (and the use of, e.g. -mmacosx-version-min=10.x, is
recommended in Availability.h). But it's unlikely that FSF GCC would
support the "-mmacosx-version-min" flag, so we may not be able to use
it.

Thanks, this looks good. We should also mention in NEWS that this is
a change in build behavior from previous Emacs versions (and that this
change was originally made in Emacs 26.1 but not mentioned in its NEWS).
