Doesn't look promising to me since Windows doesn't have "uname"
function and "HAVE_UNAME" macro is undefined.

Adding file resolves link errors but the operative code resulting
from conditional compile is

  strcpy (name, "");            /* Hardcode your system name if you want.  */

which doesn't look very useful to me.

Not lack of the function, lack of "#include" with the protoype.
