Then I think a much better way would be to access some environment
variable instead of a file.  (Assuming there's no way for you to
arrange for that system to return some string of your liking as the
system name -- if that's possible, it would be preferable, because
having in our code something that caters to building installable
binaries on MS-Windows is not something I'd do happily.)
