Rather than "#ifdef LINUX", use "#ifndef HAS_BETOH32", and have
autoconf (or similar) perform a configure-time check for its presence,
and define the appropriate things for your environment. In general,
you should never assume a given system (e.g., Linux) has particular
characteristics. It won't always be true, so you're better off
checking for that characteristic specifically.
