    But why don't we just let the default depend on system-type

	    (if (memq system-type '(windows-nt ms-dos)) ?* ?\\)

    Lots of other default settings already depend on system-type,
    so I don't see why this is any different, as long as we get
    the proper default for GNU.

It is fine to do this, if the best default is different for different
systems.
