thereis nothing listed under platforms at all in the default view.
Assuming the default shown set of versions are the ones currently supported (as
it is now), entries for IRIX and Tru64 would have changes and thus would be
shown. Once either of these is no longer supported in a supported version, I
would expect us to drop it from the about/ page as well which handles the
problem of hiding features without differences.

That sounds like a good variation on the above.
