It's got a fairly linux like ABI, though we don't aim or care to be 1-1 compatible, and it has/requires our own custom interfaces. Porting most software that was written for linux is usually pretty easy. But we can't just run binaries compiled for linux on our stuff. So for languages that require a compiler written in its own language where they don't supply cross compilers or boot strapping compilers built with the lowest common denominator (usually c or c++), things can get a little trickier.
