That does not seem like a good idea. If at all, it should be  
os="linux" if there is such a value.

You have no guarantee that other non-Windows platforms actually have  
libgdiplus.so.0. Mac OS X surely does not for one (.dylib), neither  
would AIX, (.a) and depending on libtool settings, other platforms  
might have a different versioning scheme (BeOS comes to mind there -  
just .so iirc).
