Platform Tag ------------
The platform tag is simply `distutils.util.get_platform()` with all hyphens `-` and periods `.` replaced with underscore `_`.
This part is going to cause problems. distutils is good at identifying Linux and Windows and giving them sensible platform names, but it doesn't do a good job for other OSes.
I still don't think that referencing the distutils function in the PEP is a good idea :-) It would be better to create a new helper.
How about just sysconfig.get_platform()?
