probably know about the <code><a href="../base-4.5.1.0/System-Info.html#v:os">os</a></code> however using that is very
inconvenient because it is a string and different Haskell implementations
do not agree on using the same strings for the same platforms! (In
particular see the controversy over "windows" vs "ming32"). So to make it
more consistent and easy to use we have an <code><a href="Distribution-System.html#t:OS">OS</a></code> enumeration.
