    Okay, so if (Environment.OSVersion.Platform != PlatformID.Unix) then use
a DllImported function from shell32.dll else return String.Empty.
    Where should I implement that ?  Directly in System.Environement ?
Currently, this methods calls InfoMethods.GetSpecialFolder which is an
internal function.  Should I remove this internal method ?  If so, shall I
protect the code with an #if CONFIG_WIN32_SPECIFICS as in
Microsoft.Win32.Win32KeyProvider or would the if
(Environment.OSVersion.Platform != PlatformID.Unix) be enough ?
