By ruling out this step, you've pretty much brought your project to a 
screeching halt. You have to have some kind of OS there and Linux programs 
usually build easier on...well, Linux. If you insist that it not be Linux, 
then use a BSD to build. If you insist that it not even be "Linuxy", use 
Solaris on Intel with the GNU tools.
