If os.name == 'nt' is True on IronPython then why not simply do:

    mswindows = sys.platform == "win32" or os.name == "nt"

For the record, both variants are used in different places in cPython source code. It would nice to figure out a golden standard and apply it everywhere. Maybe even add it as a new WINDOWS constant in the platform module.
