So, what you are saying is that some software that is developed

and testing, may fail on an alien environment. 

 
No, actually that software is able to build and run nicely on every
single environment it has been ported to ... except one.

Do you really think that many Linux-originated Open Source projects that
can not be built easily on Windows/Msys2  are easy to build on such OSes
like:
1. zOS (it is certified UNIX, but somehow I am not sure that it's
enough)
2. VMS
3. iOS (it has BSD-derived kernel, but somehow I am not sure that it's
enough)
4. Android (it has Linux kernel, but somehow I am not sure that it's
enough. Although do expect that rate of success would be higher than in
cases 1,2 and 3).
