Actually, I've found the reverse to be true.  Anything that gets
ported a lot eventually gets all the portability crap straightened
out so that porting it becomes just a matter of providing a few
definitions in a well-documented file.

If something still has porting problems, I'd say it hasn't been
ported enough.
