That "whatever toolkit they use" is the key point here. To compile on linux 
without major redesign, you have to use a cross-platform toolkit from the 
start.
Bonus points if you also use a build-system that is available cross-platform.

The main problem (apart from religious reasons) is that with closed-source 
apps you need to have the build-chain for all "supported" platforms available 
and know enough about them to compile your binaries. And together with the 
support growing with every supported platform, this is what keeps 
manufacturers from publishing their linux-ports...

Have fun,

Arnold
