Don't spell out the differences (as with #ifdef __BEOS__). Let the
build process probe for them instead. Use automake/autoconf to probe
for your BeOS-specific (and other) features.
That way the maintainers won't have to remember each and every
idiosyncracy of each and every platform. As a bonus, the code will
compile and run on almost any Unix-like OS, even those we haven't
heard about.
Good luck!
