The original reason for the change was that nobody wanted to maintain
the "Carbon" port (i.e. the OSX code used in Emacs-22).  Now that we
switched, we have no intention to go back, so please help us improve the
NS code in Emacs-23 by reporting (via M-x report-emacs-bug) the problems
you encounter.
