I didn't really manage to make time to get anywhere with formal testing
as part of the QA processes, unfortunately (I was hoping to have a test
case or two and get someone in QA some Mac hardware), but mjg59 is
working on things on the development end and testing with the hardware
he has available, and there has been some discussion and testing going
on particularly in the mactel-boot review request bug:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=755093

Chris Murphy is pretty active testing various things in regards to Mac
booting, and I've been meaning to get in touch and ask if he's taken a
look at F17 Alpha.
