The question that seems to be relevant there is why the port refuses to
install with some compat.linux.osrelease value ? Does port run some
linux binary during install time (unlikely) ?

I think the port should ignore even absence of the linux.ko; the value
of the linux.osrelease is purely runtime issue as opposed to the install
time.
