I call BS on this, having worked on a major open-source project that 
works on the major platforms of Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux (and also 
Android, and I think Solaris and *BSD are still reasonably 
well-supported, although the Haiku and OS/2 ports are now thoroughly 
dead). What libraries does this? A small list:
* libpng
* libjpg
* libogg + related
* cairo
* thebes
* sqlite
* freetype
* libbz2
* libjar
* zlib

And all of these are still used on Windows; there are even more that are 
used only on Linux or Mac OS X.

Which application is this? Mozilla.

It's not that hard to use other libraries on Windows.
