+    possible. It makes this information available via function APIs.
+
+    If called from the command line, it prints the platform
+    information concatenated as single string to stdout. The output
+    format is usable as part of a filename.

+#    History:
+#
+#    <see CVS and SVN checkin messages for history>
+#
+#    1.0.8 - changed Windows support to read version from kernel32.dll
+#    1.0.7 - added DEV_NULL
+#    1.0.6 - added linux_distribution()
+#    1.0.5 - fixed Java support to allow running the module on Jython
+#    1.0.4 - added IronPython support
+#    1.0.3 - added normalization of Windows system name
+#    1.0.2 - added more Windows support
+#    1.0.1 - reformatted to make doc.py happy
+#    1.0.0 - reformatted a bit and checked into Python CVS
+#    0.8.0 - added sys.version parser and various new access
+#            APIs (python_version(), python_compiler(), etc.)
+#    0.7.2 - fixed architecture() to use sizeof(pointer) where available
+#    0.7.1 - added support for Caldera OpenLinux
+#    0.7.0 - some fixes for WinCE; untabified the source file
+#    0.6.2 - support for OpenVMS - requires version 1.5.2-V006 or higher and
+#            vms_lib.getsyi() configured
+#    0.6.1 - added code to prevent 'uname -p' on platforms which are
+#            known not to support it
+#    0.6.0 - fixed win32_ver() to hopefully work on Win95,98,NT and Win2k;
+#            did some cleanup of the interfaces - some APIs have changed
+#    0.5.5 - fixed another type in the MacOS code... should have
+#            used more coffee today ;-)
+#    0.5.4 - fixed a few typos in the MacOS code
+#    0.5.3 - added experimental MacOS support; added better popen()
+#            workarounds in _syscmd_ver() -- still not 100% elegant
+#            though
+#    0.5.2 - fixed uname() to return '' instead of 'unknown' in all
+#            return values (the system uname command tends to return
+#            'unknown' instead of just leaving the field empty)
+#    0.5.1 - included code for slackware dist; added exception handlers
+#            to cover up situations where platforms don't have os.popen
+#            (e.g. Mac) or fail on socket.gethostname(); fixed libc
+#            detection RE
+#    0.5.0 - changed the API names referring to system commands to *syscmd*;
+#            added java_ver(); made syscmd_ver() a private
+#            API (was system_ver() in previous versions) -- use uname()
+#            instead; extended the win32_ver() to also return processor
+#            type information
+#    0.4.0 - added win32_ver() and modified the platform() output for WinXX
+#    0.3.4 - fixed a bug in _follow_symlinks()
+#    0.3.3 - fixed popen() and "file" command invocation bugs
+#    0.3.2 - added architecture() API and support for it in platform()
+#    0.3.1 - fixed syscmd_ver() RE to support Windows NT
+#    0.3.0 - added system alias support
+#    0.2.3 - removed 'wince' again... oh well.
+#    0.2.2 - added 'wince' to syscmd_ver() supported platforms
+#    0.2.1 - added cache logic and changed the platform string format
+#    0.2.0 - changed the API to use functions instead of module globals
+#            since some action take too long to be run on module import
+#    0.1.0 - first release
