You could do this, by introducing a parse_platform_specific_attributes() 
function. _dbus_transport_open_platform_specific() is the same idea.

I think you can leave more code in the compiles-on-all-platforms file 
though (which is desirable) if you only use the platform-specific file 
to interpret the attribute value - that is, parse_sid(), parse_user() - 
and try to leave everything else cross-platform.

Anyway, if you want to try a patch we can see how it works out.
