The whole notion scares the daylights out of me. If you really need
to use PITR between these two particular platforms, use a locale
with common behavior --- C/POSIX would work.
Could you run Linux in a virtual-machine in OS X?
That's an idea. Performance-wise though, I think we'd be better off
wiping OS X and installing Linux. As an added bonus, we'll be able to
get way better performance out of our Infortrend S16F-R/G1430 Fibre
to SAS RAID box, which isn't getting near the I/O its capable of
under OS X.
