I think this is a worthwhile patch - although it doesn't implement any
parsing specific to Slackware, at least it adds the Slackware distro test and
lets the tools that ought to work, run on Slackware. We can provide this
without any gurantees. Looks like the likelihood of this introducing any
bugs is also minimal.

What do you say, Arturo?
