hmm. What uriel may be saying is that a lot of open source software,
allegedly portable, is really only "portable" to different Linux
distros. I have seen this more and more in recent years. Just take any
of a dozen chunks of "portable" code and try to build it on mac osx, for
example. All too often, if tails.
It is also the case that some non-Linux OSes have felt pressure to add
Linux-like features ...
