it is the creators freedom to to make software for their platform of choice, whether it be windows or linux or mac. if the software they made uses GPL components then they have to publish the source code, hence anyone can port that application to their platform of choice. however we cannot force developer to make an application for a particular platform just because it uses GPL components. they will be violating the GPL only if they intentionally prevent someone else from doing so. in this case all you can do is to ask them to provide the source code since they are using GPL, or rather MPL components.
