Just use the same Assembly(s) on Linux and see how it goes. Presumably you've recompiled the native fortran code. :-)
If you do need to make changes, you can do the changes on the source code on the Windows box and recompile there. I always aim to have one assembly that works on any platform (well excepting NETCF).

There might be more likelyhood of the compiler accepting that.
