 I'm not sure their definition of 'Wide Platform Support' corresponds to mine:

Wide Platform Support: Available for 32-bit and 64-bit Windows and Red
Hat Enterprise Linux

So no use to my Mac, and problematic on Ubuntu Linux? What about my
HPC cluster of Solaris boxes? I don't know, haven't tried. Of course,
if I had the source I could compile it myself on any platform - or at
least try to - and contribute my solutions back to the community.
