My hats off to MS-Windows, whose libc stability and backward compatibility allow me to run and debug _today_ all the original binaries of Emacs from 21.4 all the way to 28.1, each binary as it was built in its own time. "Modern" systems have a lesson to learn there.


The same is true at least on GNU/Linux.
