What's needed is a function added to the engine to let us know whether we're native or under OS X when running OS 9 and earlier.

What should it be called, and who wants to add it to Bugzilla?

My vote is to modify the platform function so it returns one of:

  MacOS -- Mac OS only
  Classic -- Mac OS running under OS X in the classic layer
  OSX -- OS X
  Win32 -- windows
  -- the various Unix platforms

The need to test the systemVersion to figure out whether you're running on OS X or Mac OS is a constant irritant, so this would put two birds out of commission with one stone. (It would also do some damage to backward compatibility, but I'm inclined to think it's worth it; I'm tired of not being able to use the platform function to distinguish between Mac OS and OS X, when that's the single test I need most often. Anyone else?)
