Can Portage be used as a package manager with anything other than Linux?
I like some features of Portage; think it might be better than FreeBSD ports or
NetBSD pkgsrc, or is just a case of the grass being greener on the other side?

If I build gcc or other software using configure script, I can go to another

On the issue of whether ZFS can be shipped with the Linux kernel, FreeBSD
includes ZFS with the kernel, binary and source.
So does that mean it would be OK for Linux too?
FreeBSD has a different license (BSD) than Linux (GPL 2 or 3).
