I find this statement puzzling. According to 
<http://predef.sourceforge.net/preos.html>:

*  There's no OSX macro on OS X, just __APPLE__ and __MACH__.
*  There's no Solaris macro on Solaris, only 'sun' and '__sun'.
*  There's no Windows/Win32/Win64 macro on Windows, there's 
__WINDOWS__/_WIN32/_WIN64.
*  There's no FreeBSD macro on FreeBSD, instead you have __FreeBSD__.

Beside linux, I don't see any of the predefined version identifiers 
corresponding to the platform's standard C macros.
