Unfortunately, the general case is that it will not work.

The reason is that there is skew among the variousĀ  Linux distros particularly 
relative to libc with the result that executables tend to dump core if run on a 
different distro. This is the reason that commercial software running on Linux 
has very specific system requirements.

Have Fun!

Does this mean that an executable built, say, under Debian will not work
under other Linuxes like Fedora, even if it is statically linked?
