Yeah - its a problem with nodejs as well. Native C libraries in npm regularly break when you change OS, and given that most javascript packages pull in a small country worth of dependencies its very common to have some native code in there somewhere.

I really hope most native javascript modules being rewritten / repackaged into wasm. As well as solving any cross-OS compatibility problems, that'll also make them work transparently in the browser.
