* ``MB_PYTHON_OSX_VER`` sets the minimum macOS SDK version for any C extensions being built. Its currently ignored for PyPy targets. For CPython targets it may be set to 10.6 or 10.9, and defaults to the highest available, which is usually the right choice.

* ``PLAT`` sets the architecture(s) built for, either ``x86_64`` or ``intel`` for 64-bit or 64/32-bit respectively. It defaults to 64-bit for CPython macOS 10.9 or PyPy, and 64/32-bit for CPython 10.6 targets.

In most cases, ``MB_PYTHON_OSX_VER`` and ``PLAT`` dont need to be set explicitly. If ``MB_PYTHON_OSX_VER`` is set for a CPython target, it must correspose to a build available for download at `python.org <https://www.python.org/downloads/mac-osx/>`_ for the Python version set by ``MB_PYTHON_VER``

Its pretty rare that you'd want to set ``PLAT`` at all - an example might be if you want to save build time by not building the 32-bit arch for a CPython 10.6 target, accepting that technically you'd be breaking spec, even if practically its very unlikely someone would try to use the wheel in 32 bit mode.
