At the moment, the test for the platform module merely calls each
function. I realize that this is a hard module to test well, but are
there some assumptions we can make? For example, if sys.platform is
'java', can it be assumed that java_ver is going to return something
which is not empty. When sys.platform is 'darwin' and the gestalt
module is present, is it reasonable to require that a empty tuple not
be returned?

A student has created a patch during the GHOP contest which adds some
features and tests for Linux. AFAIK the patch hasn't been applied yet.
