Before this gets chalked up to random flaming I'd like to point out the
weaknesses I see in your setup right now:

* You abort() on some errors that should be handled a bit more smoothly.

* By sticking all sorts of various OS dependant stuff in one file you make
it more ugly for me to include various files.  For instance I want to
include sys/stat.h, and I know Linux has this header.  How can I
gracefully do this in one file?
