Attached is a patch that fixes uname() instead of the individual helpers. I agree that is the better way to do it. Again, not tested on Windows because I don't have it. What about adding a "isWindows()" sort of method that does the right thing, or "amIRunningOn('Vista')"? I suggest the latter because I imagine the former might just lead to a bunch of "Where is isX()?" for different platforms. This could implement the logic so that users don't have to know the details of this issue.
