We should introduce a define, yes.

Perhaps we can introduce a "CROSS_PLATFORM" define that we use on the
Reference source to annotate those cases.

That will get you running for now ;)

Nah, I think it is easy.

The way you replace a class, is to remove the file from the .sources and
add the new one.   That should cover most bases.
