Comment (by phma):

 I added this line to _platform_map in iputil.py and it works:

     "dragonfly3": "bsd",

 The problem with this is that, when DragonFly 4 comes out, it will break.
 The OS recognition should be done by prefix substring matching instead.
 Any OS name that begins with "openbsd" or "netbsd" or "freebsd" or
 "dragonfly" is a BSD, regardless of the version number.
