Eric,

Yes I like to.
But I am not familiar how to submit a patch.
The file that need to be patched is "C:\Program Files (x86)\IronPython
2.6\Lib\platform.py"  for IronPython 2.6.
I thought this file was maintained by Marc-Andre Lemburg
<mal@egenix.com based on the comment in the file platform.py.

It will affect IronPython 2.6 and  IronPython 2.6 For .Net 4.0 and
probably IronPython 2.7.

If you give me linsk to read about how to make a patch I would really
like to contribute to IronPython.

Thanks.
Fred.
