Don't forget India! The sex ratio is biased against girls, and dropping due to selective abortion. So the two countries constituting a third of the world's population will have excess boys. I don't think a few extra girls in Oz will really tip the balance.
Incidentally, my recent Expanded Horizons story, Spoiling Veena, is about gender selection.
I personally have rather mixed feelings about it, but I also think its a technology people want so badly that once it's easily (and cheaply) available, it will be unstoppable.
