How will this work with nativesdk for things like targeting mingw (windows),
darwin, or even alternative OS like Zephyr?
I'm thinking if 'linux-gnu' is invalid, then a simple conversion to 'linux'
would be better then hard coding everything to 'linux'.
I don't believe that the OS name embedded into packages is actually used
anywhere to make decisions about which package to install. It's just
that some packages have one value for it, others have another, and rpm 4
does not allow that (rpm 5 does, and so several OS values gets written
into /etc). So I bring them all to a common value.
