Are there any objections to changing this module so that only getstatus() is marked as Unix specific?
Not from me.
I ask, because I don't want to start work on a documentation patch if the idea is a non-starter (the code & test changes are already done, butI think the hardest part of the exercise will be moving the documentation out of the 'Unix-specific' part of the doc tree).
This is pretty easy actually. In fact, while I was checking whether it really was easy, I created a patch you could use. It's attached.
