It was never meant to work, but ...

... it's there to make sure it's compatible?
Uhm, isn't that a contradiction?

In that particular case, I wasn't even using anything in NSApplication,
it just got included via <AppKit/AppKit.h>

Apart from that, you will get a hole slew of missing interfaces, syntax
errors, eg. in NSWindow.h.

So how is it supposed to make sure it's compatible, if some parts
"inside" depend on parts, that are defined "outside" the scope?

What am I missing?
