Nothing obvious :-) There's a slight subtlety between NetBSD proper and pkgsrc. pkgsrc is the packaging system developed under NetBSD but which is portable to many more platforms. pkgsrc should work on OpenBSD, FreeBSD, and Mac OS X/Darwin from your list above. Plus Solaris, and to some degree on IRIX, AIX, Interix, HP-UX. http://www.netbsd.org/docs/software/packages.html#platforms Also, pkgsrc is the official packaging system of DragonFlyBSD. There are currently issues with guile from pkgsrc on Darwin, related to Darwin's different approach to shared library search paths, and guile's expecation that modules be found via searching rather than using full paths. guile definitely works fine on NetBSD (e.g., gnucash runs).
