Sure.
I understand why the change was made, it is just the wrong thing in those 
environments that don't have the bug being compensated for.
This is a bug report, so I didn't want to suggest one of the obvious solutions 
such as either of:

-- OS sensitivity;
-- a customize option;
-- a customize option that defaults to the right thing in an OS-sensitive way.

Your decision.
I just don't want to have to monkey-patch the code in eternity...
