They're the same.

Except for some occasional buggy behaviour on linux :)

- there is at least one bug we see where visual crashes on wave.py (and a
  few other demos), that appears to be a GL bug (it crashes in a GL
  linedrawing function)
- there is some weird interface behaviour with multiple windows (things
  respond very slowly to user input).

And currently the graph stuff is a little broken because it's using python2
syntax. But Bruce just fixed that (and I'll release a new linux version one
of these days here).

But codewise, the Linux version is identical (modulo necessary
cross-platform abstractions).
