I did not argue against the patch. If you read the thread, you'll see that
I was in favour of it even if with only the Linux implementation provided.

But I'd like to see unimplemented platforms tracked in follow up issues as
David proposed. Because it is easy to loose track of the many things to
port. In this case, we'd need a follow up issue for Solaris and AIX; the
latter you can assign to me.
