Can I generate binaries that run on older sysem on OpenServer?
Yes, if you constrain yourself to use only features that existed in the older versions. For example, you can't use mmap(S) (A feature new in OpenServer) and expect it to work on older versions. You should also read the man page for cc(CP) for related issues.

There are some bugs in the handling of POSIX terminal handling that affect this ability. #FIXME# more details.
