I guess so far they are just a VM. Still needs to port Linux or some OS to WebAssembly to make it whole. Having the C++ compiler working is a very good start.

It'll happen. Webassembly as a Linux target architecture. It's a solution without a problem, but maybe web devs will find a way to use this to make their development easier.
