Over my head atm to do this quickly, I'll open a bugtracker item for it tho,
so that it doesn't get lost.

What is it supposed to do, specifically on non windows, or should it
be windows only?

Win32platform is already defined. 

I assume the "etc" are Win32MajorVersion, Win32MinorVersion,
Win32BuildNumber and Win32CSDVersion? Added to windows version of SysUtils
only (I assumed their contents also originate from getversionex)

I'll add them as soon as I find an implementation. Will look into that early 
next week.

Added. (all additions to CVS)
