Excuse me?
"Standard" != "RedHat". There's something called the "Linux Standards
Base" that's providing a standard for third-party vendors which will, when
ready, exclude the problems you're referring to. But saying "you need to
be RedHat binary compatible" is evil. You could just as well require us to
be Windows binary compatible; after all, Most boxen in the world run
Windows, you know.

This is Linux world. On a quiet day, you can hear Windows reboot.
