Not too useful, yes.
Build-time OS is captured in Installation file by configure (UNIX,
cygwin) or xemacs.mak (native Windows build) respectively.
What's wrong with r-e-b to include runtime version as follows:
(if (eq system-type 'windows-nt)
(shell-command-to-string "ver")
(if
(file-exists-p "/etc/osversion") ; SONY NEWS-OS
(shell-command-to-string "cat /etc/osversion")
(shell-command-to-string "uname -a")))
Best regards,
