You may want to get over that.  Some software vendors/distributors don't
want you to be able to do things portably.  Others have "not invented here"
syndrome.  A lot of programming is adding multiple ways of doing the same
thing to program around the stupid wars ("choices") the vendors and
distributors push on us.

Or if you're really an idealist, start your own project to abstract away
these silly details.
