I'm not talking about libraries.

ORBit has broken once or twice when built without indent, and it doesn't like 
non-GNU indent.  Likewise, packages tend to acquire an implicit dependency on 
GNU versions of programs --- they *do* get fixed, but it tends to happen in 
such a way as to indicate that people aren't thinking about non-GNU systems 
when they make changes.

And I get just a bit tired of being a second-class citizen because I have to 
use a non-GNU OS.
