If it's an extension, there's nothing wrong with OS-specific ones - though it would be in a good taste to clearly mark it as such in the documentation. The code that we have in the core (i.e. distributed from php.net) we try to keep as portable as possible within reasonable set of systems, though some functions may still not work on some OSes because they don't have that feature. But generally OS-specific bits are usually best as an extension. -- Stas Malyshev smalyshev@gmail.com
