hmm... there is a function gb_CliAssemblyTarget_set_platform that would cause a
"-platform" argument to be passed but it has never been used in the build
system.

probably only the native code library would require it? guess it should be set
from the constructor gb_CliNativeLibrary_CliNativeLibrary then...

(... and java's model of putting .dll files into jars is so much easier to
understand than this overengineered CLR nightmare of policy dlls, keyfiles,
GAC, DLLs that may be native or may be portable, etc.)

sounds likely.

well the idea was that release engineering would update the version numbers,
but it looks like that didn't happen.
