I think you're a bit too pessimistic. While I agree that the
"normal"/standard way on Linux(*) is to recompile for a specific distribution
/ machine type, there is the LSB standard which makes certain distributions
"similar enough" so that your binary might work.
Read: You could try an existing binary before recompiling, when the machines
are not too different.

*: OK, there is proprietary, closed-source software which is usualy
distributed together with most dependencies, either statically linked or with
a bit .so collection and some shell script / LD_LIBRARY_PATH startup magic.
