I could. It is a little crude. I'd rather use something already parsed.
What is in Sys.info(), particularly fields 1 and 2:
R> Sys.info()[1:2]
sysname release
"Linux" "2.6.32-25-generic"
R>
Else, .Platform() starts with 'Darwin', right? We do test for Darwin in two
places but never AFAICT for sub-versions.
