[issue7850] platform.system() should be "macosx" instead of "Darwin" on OSX

[Nicholas Chammas]

Nicholas Chammas added the comment:

As of Python 3.5.1 [0], it looks like

1) the `aliased` and `terse` parameters of `platform.platform()` are documented to take integers instead of booleans (contrary to what Marc-Andre requested), and 

2) calling `platform.platform()` with `aliased` set to 1 or True still returns "Darwin" on OS X.

Is this by design?
