[mythtv] Need Mac OS X tester

Can some Mac OS X user test the attached patch with trunk r24479 or 
higher and verify that fullscreen mode works properly (without any 
finders or whatever covering part of the screen) after applying the 
patch, please?  (I.e., fullscreen mode should work the same before and 
after applying the patch.)  To ensure you're using fullscreen mode, you 
can /not/ specify any window size/offset overrides or -geometry flags on 
the mythfrontend/mythtv-setup command line and you /must/ set the GUI 
size (both X and Y) sizes to 0 in mythfrontend settings.

On #8121, Jeff Lu submitted a patch that fixes fullscreen mode on 
Windows, where the call to setWindowState(Qt::WindowFullScreen) must 
come after the call to setWindowFlags(flags) .  Before this patch, there 
was a hack added to workaround fullscreen not working properly on Mac OS 
X that changed the window to be a Qt::SplashScreen .  It seems that the 
hack was working around the same issue that Jeff fixed for Windows, so I 
have a suspicion that the Mac OS hack is no longer required, and I would 
love to get it removed.

Thanks,
Mike
