If you look at the ChangeLog, you will see that we integrated patches
for Solaris and MacOS X with this release, too.

So yes, we care about portability, but it does not have a high
priority as we are only able to test on Linux. But if somebody creates
clean patches (Not a cascade of OS specific "ifdefs") we will of course
discuss and apply them.
