on linux a couple of compiler flags (FORTIFY_SOURCE, etc) and providing a memcpy wrapper would get you compatibility back to about 2006. To go back further the glibc you compile against can have an earlier version of the linux kernel specified. I only bothered with 2.6.16 (or was that 18) at the time.
