Are you positive of that? How is it a "compatibility problem" if I, as a
vendor, explicitly take measures so it doesn't install or legally register
on a platform and make it known that it doesn't?

By that token of "compatibility problem", (and should it be feasible), I
could take a Mac application, decompile it, and compile it for Windows. I
somehow doubt that's legal.
