I'm not sure if it's been mentioned, but fluid/fltk allows you to develop
gui apps that'll work in both windows and linux.  Although you'll probably
need visual studio to compile the windows version in windows.  There might
be a wxwidgets/wxwindows work around though.

M$ lost a suit against lindows, since windows is a generic everyday term. 
Which was somehow related back to a case about apple.  So I'm not sure why
wxwindows would change names, except maybe to avoid M$ attempts to
vaporware by sueing out of existence.

On the otherside of that, Allegro and SDL allows you some cross platform
graphics compatibility for stuff like games.  There's also portaudio that
audacity uses to maintain platform independance.
