Well in such a case you might want to provide an abstraction like
implementing pclone() and that is implemented as rfork on FreeMacOS™ and
clone on WSL and then you provide two Makefiles or config.mk's for
inclusion, one building pclone() using rfork that is being used on
FreeMacOS™ and the other one building it using clone() on WSL.

I can't see why you'd want configure or something similar for such
kind of stuff.
