Wildcard OS_NAME
----------------

Some package managers are supported and function on more than one platform, and
the names of packages in those package managers are typically the same between
platforms. To avoid duplicating the rules under several ``OS_NAME`` stanzas the
``OS_NAME`` can be specified as `*` as long as the rule under it specifies the
``PACKAGE_MANAGER`` explicitly.

Similar to rule lookups regarding a `Wildcard OS_VERSION`_, an explicit
``OS_NAME`` entry will take precedence over `*` rules entirely and an
explicitly null ``PACKAGE_ARGUMENT`` for an ``OS_NAME`` will omit it from the
wildcard.
