> When the system property os.name return a Windows OS name that is not recognized by org.apache.felix.framework.util.manifestparser.NativeLibraryClause#normalizeOSName then it return "win" as a fallback value.
> However this "win" value is not something valid for the org.osgi.framework.os.name property name (cf https://www.osgi.org/developer/specifications/reference/)
> Changing the fallback value to "win32" would be better so it would allow most of the JNI library to be loaded.
> This would allow smooth support of future windows platform, for example for Windows Server 2016 with JDK9 (or JDK8 when https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8159948 will be fix on it)
