OHHH I figured out what was happening... I thought I was using the binary from Debian, but it turns out I was actually using the one from plan9port! So you're right, this is portable only if your definition of "portable" only includes Plan 9 :P I swear I had seen this trick before somewhere though... either it was only for Plan 9, or it used some other similar program instead of fortune.
