I'm not sure what function you mean. I can use 'os.platform' instead of 'modules.peek : OSPLAT' (I wish I used it in the first place). Is 'os.platform' the recommended way to determine the platform or there is a better way?

I "stole" it from tools/build/v2/util/os.jam :
.platform = [ modules.peek : OSPLAT ] ;

I need to distinguish two different architectures of HP-UX: ia64 and PA-RISC.
I'm copying Volodya on the reply, in case he does not watch this thread.
OK
