Why do you want to change this?

The current behavior is consistent with the platform name (Darwin). I’ve filed 
an issue in the past to change the platform name to “macosx”, but there were 
good arguments to not change the behavior at the time. The existence of iOS 
might change that though. 

W.r.t. failing when the Plist is not present: that is unlikely to happen 
because this is a system file that is hard to remove and is AFAIK documented to 
exist. 

If the platform version info gets changed, the platform name should change as 
well. 

Ps. Sorry about the lack of references, I’m away from my computer.
