I installed Fedora 23 on an older machine, so I'll be on the bleeding

I use some Linux software that was distributed (by a developer who
learned to code on Windows) as both source code and binaries where the
binary was statically linked. Much like a Window executable, it still
runs years after the author compiled it. (In fact, gcc and SWIG have
moved on and the source no longer compiles.)
Other than (a) "that's not the way we do it" and (b) the issues of
trusting binaries, what's the downside of distributing a statically
linked PSPP? Wouldn't that allow me to run the latest PSPP on my CentOS
6 machine?
If absolutely everything is statically linked, then I think that will work.
Yes.
