Sadly not (as far as I know). I have a thing with ifdefs for *nix, mac
and win32 in my app:

http://vips.cvs.sourceforge.net/vips/nip2-7.11/src/boxes.c?revision=1.8&view=markup

Line 919  ... box_url(). You're welcome to nick any of that that seems
useful. I'm sure other developers have much better solutions. For
example, it ought to use Portland, if available.
