I do understand, I run Gentoo for 2 years ;)
But you have compatibility mode??? WHOA!
I just hope some GNU/Linux could make that kinda option ...

Again, putting the blame on someone else. Do it yourself.

Yeah, FreeBSD 6 offers FreeBSD BSD 4.3, FreeBSD 4,and FreeBSD 5 compatibility mode - so you can even run programs compiled for very old versions of BSD - though I wouldn't recommend it.

Would be very hard.
I blame the GNU libc developers for this. Not only they break backwards compatibility quite often, also break forward compatibility, and they break ABI even when interface version is not changed ... so it is very hard to make any userland hacks around ABI breaks (since you can't be sure if the libc version is compatible or not).
BSD dudes just have every detail thought out. Tho they won't like people who are not really good hackers, so I stick with GNU/Linsux and try to make my points clear ...
toadlife:
I think the myth of BSD elistism is rather overblown. I'm not a unix guru, and I don't know C/C++ from my ass, but I've found the BSD community to be pretty friendly place myself.

Can you help me to convince these GNU/Linux masturbators around here that their system has no standards whatsoever?
It just sucks how people think that GNU/Linux systems are compatible, and that building proprietary binaries is a piece of cake for the GNU suck-cock-userland.
It is just so fucking frustrating to be a devoted GNU/Linux user, like me, and admit the faults and problems our platform has, while all the other users just fail to see any problems and act blind. Sigh.

Why is this all you talk about in every thread? This isn't even on topic here.
