fwiw, I have a local platform/chromium-mac-10_7_4 directory with ~160ish layout test results that I think account for most if not all of the failures. I'm not posting this to the bug for now since I haven't really audited all of them, and it's unclear quite yet what to do with this.

Per zmo, it seems that we don't necessarily want to just upgrade the bots to 10.7.4 because that'll cause a lot of gpu tests to fail. On the other hand, 10.7.4 is what our customers are running, so arguably we should just suck it up.

We can:

1) create a 10.7.4 platform directory and keep it up-to-date by hand
2) spin up a 10.7.4 bot
3) wait for 10.7.5 and hope that fixes the gpu issues
4) suppress the failures as IMAGE (and IMAGE+TEXT etc) so that we don't need to track the baselines
5) ignore the problem and hope it goes away :)

Let me know if anyone has any strong leanings here.
