Looks like the right idea, except "Smalltalk platformName" returns "Win32" on my platform, not "win32", so you'll need to fix that.  Once I fix that in my image, all the tests pass.

(Side note:  It seems like there ought to be class-side accessors somewhere for the basic platform tests, such as "Smalltalk isWindowsPlatform", to centralize this stuff.)

Also, it might be worth adding a brief comment in this method explaining why this platform test is there, for future reference.
