Actually just OS X.  The ifdefs should be changed to NS_IMPL_COCOA.

I agree, but did not see an easy way to do so given the way the  
daemon initialization is spread over two processes and several  
functions.  Another idea I thought of would be to simply not fork,  
and just require OS X users to run "emacs --daemon &".
