I don't think that's true.
The NIST designed if for POSIX systems.

Th point I was trying to make is that building & running Linuxcnc is achievable on, I'll say most< Linux platforms. Even Puppy Linux had an ISO for Linuxcnc.

Once again you have a more in depth, I can't think of the word.......I don't think I'm well and may not have long left before I'm not much good to anyone.
Linuxcnc isn't "designed for debian" originally the ISO were built for Ubuntu,
I think that _originally_ EMC targeted Windows NT...
But FreeBSD was originally supported, according to en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LinuxCNC

Even if it is the RT implementations for WIndows NT & Linux are going to be different beasts, as would the RT for BSD.
Even then Linux (most distros) NetBSD & OpenBSD are not certified as POSIX compliant yet comply in large part. Windows I think there was an effort with NT4 or Windows 2k, from memory a "POSIX Pack" was available.
After looking through a number of documents I could not find posix mentioned. But if you have access to any plesae link.

Could you provide the literature that confirms your claim.I don't think that's true.

-CoolCNC ISO at i think 50MB in total size
-Debian Dog at something like 350MB in total size
It is getting increasingly hard to find those, so archiving them for when we grow old might be a good idea, although might not need them, ever!

Yes, there were two versions:Even Puppy Linux had an ISO for Linuxcnc.

hmm I can't remember if I kept all my Puppy versions, I used to help Barry a little bit from time to time getting wireless going in the very early days. Geesh even used to build my own custom ones. Some for booting a workstation from a server. And yes I was just as grumpy and the same old asshole back then.
