Solaris: The native compiler combined with GMP fails.
Configuring: Some systems need an additional library (or something) for stack fortification. mkconfig does not locate this.
MacOS: The libtommath library available via MacPorts currently has issues (see: https://trac.macports.org/ticket/71791 )
DragonFly BSD: If quotas are not turned on in the kernel (/boot/loader.conf), the vquotctl interface will not be configured into di.
Quotas:
- Solaris ufs requires the quotas file to be readable or make the
  di program setuid. Neither is recommended.
- Linux 2.4: not working
- HP-UX: quotactl isn't declared (some versions of HP-UX).
  Quota support may need to be turned on manually.
- NetBSD 6: group quotas can't be fetched by ordinary users (EPERM).
  If the account is limited by a group quota, it will not be reported.
- AIX 7: Unlike AIX 5, AIX 7 gives a permission denied error when
  the user tries to get their quota. Could make di suid, but that's
  not a good idea.
Pooled Filesystems
- HAMMER2: The usage reported for pseudo-filesystems is the usage
  for the main pool. Therefore the total used and total size will be
  wrong.
- BTRFS: There is no way to identify the pools.
