Who is talking here on AmigaOS 4, it's worded up PowerPC/Amiga OS, and as long as that discrimination is made, you run WUP/PUP and you run on PowerPC/Amiga OS. As for 'anything goes', it's not because Linux uses Wine that it instantaniously becomes Windows.
The history has tied PUP and WUP to Amiga OS, you have lots of Amigas running these systems and AFAIK MorphOS has it's kind of binaries, so PUP isn't exclusive to MOS.
I know this could eventually make no logic to you, but still and one more time, Amiga OS has evolved to PowerPC, but it had already started that migration on Classic machines. On Classic machines there were PowerUP binaries running *on top* of AmigaOS so turning it PowerPC/Amiga OS.
But why would anyone on a Pegasos do some crunch trough PowerUP, or by doing in their Classic pretending it to be MorphOS. If you run on top of MorphOS you should run the binary of MOS, if you run it on top of AmigaOS you make it an AmigaOS application... simple isn't it? |
