To what extent does the pending (or extent) ABI standard guarantee the portability of applications ? Are there caveats on the degree of compatibility?. For example, will screen oriented programs work transparently, and will the foggy ioctl interface to async serial lines be a forgotten problem of the dark ages ??? Or as usual, caveat buyer.
