Known differences

All behavioural differences found by the audits (RV1–RV18) have been fixed; intentional deviations (upstream bugs fixed rather than replicated) are listed in DEVIANT_FIXES.md. No known unfixed behavioural differences remain.

What remains is verification coverage that this Linux machine cannot provide:

Not verifiable on this machine

  • Native Apple execution: Metal, IOSurface, CoreText, Apple input APIs, Mach handling and Apple packaging (compile-checked only, just check-macos).
  • Native Windows (real Windows console host, Windows-only APIs Wine stubs: ResizePseudoConsole is a Wine stub, POSIX-semantics rename over an existing file is unsupported by Wine). The Windows code paths are otherwise run under Wine (just test-windows-wine, see notes/windows-wine.md): ConPTY, CreateProcessW, pipes, the IO thread and cmd.exe children are runtime-tested; just check-windows stays the clippy gate.
  • Native FreeBSD execution (cross cargo check only, if the target could be added).
  • Live portal / D-Bus integration.
  • Real-browser rendering (wasm is checked with Node only).
  • Native io_uring execution; Swift code was excluded.
