"Darwin" has always referred to either one of a) Apple's open source
efforts in their entirety, or b) a standalone open source operating
system similar to Mac OS X. It's never been used (by Apple) to refer
specifically to the kernel.

It's the same kernel that comes with new Mac Pro. It's not the same
kernel that's on existing iMac, MacBooks, or MacBook Pros -- which is
why there are some updated kernel extensions that are also required
on those systems.
