This is not completely true : if you compile only "statically linked" binaries 
(this means they do not depend on any libraries but have all required 
librarycode linked in) it will work fine on all Linux versions. Only drawback 
is that the code will be a lot larger.

This is what they do with many commercial software packages for linux.

And even with dynamic libraries you can get pretty far as long as you 
statically link the more exotic ones. Examples are e.g. firefox and 
thunderbird.
