No, it can't. It just gives "Linux" or "Darwin" or whatever.
(the OS kernel is distinct from the distribution (Linux vs GNU; Debian
can run using Hurd or *BSD instead of Linux))

Don't worry too much about accommodating special changes for Debian.
It's more a question of what's now commonly used industry-wide.
