Description:
------------
The Documentation at http://pear.php.net/manual/en/
package.pear.pear-packagefilemanager.pear-
packagefilemanager.addplatformexception.php

suggests:

"To select non-windows, use (*ix|*ux)"

This leads to errors on Mac OS X/dawin when installing
such a file:

skipped pear/xxx (meant for (*ix|*ux), we are darwin
-7.5.0-Macintosh)
skipped pear/xxx.bat (meant for windows, we are darwin
-7.5.0-Macintosh)

The first file is not installed though it should be
since OX X is a non-windows system.

Expected result:
----------------
The Documentation should read:

""To select non-windows, use (*ix|*ux|darwin*)"

Note: this then works on OS X. Not tested on more
esoteric plattforms.
