The only way to achieve that at the moment is to add some code to
setup.py
that explicitly raises an exception when you try to build it on an
unsupported platform.
Or to provide binary releases because python version and os info are
set in the archive name.
But it's hackish.
A binary release that does nothing would indeed be hackish, and would
be worse than the existing error because a binary package gives the
impression that the platform is actually supported.
