That's a good point. The big things (async I/O, dynaloading, and subprocess
creation and communication come to mind as biggies) can be taken as
separate things rather than treating platforms separately.
We'd end up with a mix of per-platform and per-style code, though, so I'm
not sure if it'd be a win.
