@millie@infosec.exchange unfortunately even if you do write a program that is feature complete, the sentiment towards backwards compatibility in the current landscape seems to be "lol who cares" so there's no guarantee it'll work in a year or two

@haematophage@fabula.schizophreni.ca @millie@infosec.exchange Kernel APIs and ABIs are pretty stable on all relevant platforms. Just link statically, where applicable. Yes, graphics APIs are an issue due GPU drivers depending on dynamic linkage. However, if you can live without modern GPU, good old X11 depends on stable socket API only, and that's kernel.
