Yep.

C and C++ are the outliers here.

Although C++ is moving into a richer runtime, thus increasing the likelihood to write OS independent code without relying on third party libraries.

Even C, if POSIX had been part of ANSI C, would fall into this scenario.

In a way, UNIX can be seen as C's original runtime.
