Generally speaking, if someone is not actively using/hacking software on a particular platform, support for that platform can fall in a hole. It's often not hard to add, however, if the code base is well written and keeps portability in mind. I fixed an issue with NetBSD support in GrafX2 (pixel art editor) some years back in like fifteen minutes.
