#
# SYNOPSIS
#
#   TUKLIB_PHYSMEM
#
# DESCRIPTION
#
#   Check how to get the amount of physical memory.
#   This information is used in tuklib_physmem.c.
#
#   Supported methods:
#
#     - Windows (including Cygwin), OS/2, DJGPP (DOS), and OpenVMS have
#       operating-system specific functions.
#
#     - sysconf() works on GNU/Linux and Solaris, and possibly on
#       some BSDs.
#
#     - BSDs use sysctl().
#
#     - sysinfo() works on Linux/dietlibc and probably on other Linux
#       systems whose libc may lack sysconf().
