I added some conditional stuff in base and CoreBase a little while ago for 
OSType, so it is declared in both but only if the other is not already defined.

Declarations like this are a complete mess on OS X.  Foundation includes a load 
of CoreFoundation / CoreServices stuff, AppKit includes a load of Quartz stuff, 
and it's difficult to see where anything really comes from - I don't think we 
need to copy that...
