Those native libraries are usually exist, to be able to build platform
apps for other platforms, and here are a bunch of profiler related
binaries as well, that you may need when doing live profiling on other
platforms.
Their footprint is really minimal compared to the whole IDE. I do not
really see the reason remove them from the distribution.

I need some information about porting NetBeans to FreeBSD. I'd like to remove
all files with the .bat, .cmd, .exe, and .dll extensions from the binary
distribution, but I'm thinking of removing some directories, especially those
for other platforms (MacOS and Windows). For example, the
`netbeans-28/ide/bin/nativeexecution` directory contains directories for each
supported platform: Linux, SunOS, MacOS, and Windows. I assume I could keep
only the Linux platform (there's no FreeBSD, so I assume Linux is used) and
delete the others (delete the directories, such as `Windows-x86`)?
