> If it weren't for the fact that we have all these switches on `os.name`, `sys.platform`, and `platform.system` inside the tests as well as the test running infrastructure, then hiding it would be good.  But yea, the test suite itself is still really fragile due to all the conditionals, so it would be great to be able to use this cross platform helpers from anywhere in the test suite.  Making it a package sounds good, but I dont' think it needs to be done as part of this CL (or even immediately after) unless you really want to.


Good - I'll hold off on that part until later.
