If I had to guess it would be because glBlitFramebuffer is OpenGL 4 while they need to take Macs into account that only do 3.3. It would be good to use glBlitFramebuffer when available of course.

glBlitFramebuffer is OpenGL 3.0, and ARB_framebuffer_object (also exposing glBlitFramebuffer) is available on GL 2.x and 1.x Mesa drivers.
