It's not even crucial to me that these be fixed, but before I continue to

patches in my app that will be compatible with whatever (if anything) is
decided.
Nothing has been decided yet on this. If you provide a patch for
get_platform() with a rational,
we can start the discussion here and work on a standard, we can then
bring it up at python-dev
once its ready.
I was holding off on creating such a patch until I had some input on
what how the platform string should be constructed. And indeed, from
other messages in this thread it sounds like hacking up the platform
string should not even be the way to do this.
I would be happy to provide something, though, if I should go ahead and
come up with something that seems reasonable to me.
