There should be a way to tell the build system to automatically build (or not
build) modules that are OS dependent so that new suites do not have to be
created for every OS.  This would work by looking at the osextensions.txt file
in the module-info directory.  Classes listed there should only be compiled if
the OS matches the current users java derived OS tag.
