Right on! Less work is good :)

It's actually built into the compiler, not in /usr/include. Try:
echo 'main(){}' >test.c;gcc -v test.c 2>&1|grep -- -D;rm test.c
If you want to be lazy instead of modifying multiple source files,
change CC and (CXX or CCC) from "gcc blah" to "gcc blah -D__unix__"
I think this is more foolproof than modifying CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS.

Hey, the screenshots look okay. I'll be glad to test your package
once you whip it up.

NetBSD: it isn't foolproof, but it doesn't graduate fools either
