Well, thinking this over a bit, it seems that the only reason for
exposing the system type is to make it easier to see whether people
are using Windows, so that we can adequately, er, help.  So it's a
kind of debugging tool.  I'm not quite sure that's important enough
a reason to expose this information.

(Why have a User-Agent header at all?  Well, first of all because
it's fun, but most importantly because it's a way to hold client
writers accountable.  If Eudora didn't put its name in any of the
headers, we wouldn't know how much that client sucked,
interoperatively speaking.)
