Patch worked OK on Win2k (gcc and vc6, with and 
without threads) once I changed a spurious '^L' 
(literally, caret-ell) to a form feed character.
Revised patch attached.

Attached patch does the
[info hostname] conversion
for unix.

All modern platforms I know of have an OS notion of current
user and that is per-process. (The exception is Win95/98/ME
but who really cares about those any more?) If nothing else,
could use a PGV to store the initial value of t_p(user), as
I don't think that there's a (UNIX) cross-platform reentrant
interface to convert the UID to a username.

hmmm... currently tcl_platform(user)
is pulled from the environment variable
at the time each interp is created.

This allows each interp to have different
values if they get created in different
environments.

A PGV-backed store would force the
same value on all interps in all threads.

Not clear to me which is more desirable.

Also tcl_platform(user)?
