| Actually the ABI seems to have gotten much more stable.  The last ABI
| issues I remember were around 2.4.10 or something like that, which is
| many years ago.  Most of those ABI issues even have workarounds.

You take me too literally.  The ABI practically includes glibc, xlib,
and who knows what else.

| It even includes both 32 and 64bit versions for x86 it would seem.
| It has its own copies of some shared libraries it uses that it puts in
| /opt along with the game.

That's probably the best hope.
