hum, i m not at the origin of the post, either i made a bad
description or you don't understand, i try to say, why not include in
the framework, code who say if we are on unix sytem with the .NET C# :
"Environment.OSVersion.Platform = PlatformID.MacOSX" or
"PlatformID.Unix" or ... (better a select case), parse the
/etc/resolve file; so i didn't see an extra lib who could break
portability of mono under windows !!?
