Rather than read random files, I'm thinking that the uname() syscall is
a better approach. It is portable to more guests (since uname is a
POSIX interface), even if it is somewhat more limited on the information
it provides.

Instead of using strdup() (which uses malloc()), you should be using
g_strdup_printf() (which uses g_malloc(). In general, we prefer
g_malloc/g_free over raw malloc. And once you use g_strdup_printf, you
no longer have to worry about whether buf is allocated large enough to
avoid overflow with sprintf.

You've missed 2.8 by a long shot. In fact, you've missed hard freeze for
2.9, so this needs to be 2.10.

Rather than printing an empty string, would it be better to make the
fields optional, and omit them when there is nothing useful to supply?
