theoretically, after being ported to one flavor of UNIX, like say 
Linux(oh wait, it already has!) with the right shared libraries, it 
should run under any flavor of UNIX including MacOS X and Windows 
XP(with Interix), and with a bit of tweaking, the BeOS.

actually, MacOS X is based on a linux-like Darwin kernel. Interix is a 
set of.....stuff....that lets Windows XP(Windows 2001 in disguise) run 
*NIX programs. technically, Windows 2000 was a merger of NT and 9x, 
Windows XP is just the latest version of that.
