Of course, this is complete nonsense.

All that is required is to parse a binary file, and this can be
done in 100% portable C.

The same code can be used to parse shared/static libraries on
all implementations of C? How was a single uniform library file
format established? When? By whom? Who's responsible for
executing anyone who might otherwise dare to define a new,
incompatible library file format? How did they get rid of all of
the legacy systems using different file formats?

I'm sorry - when I use Thunderbird as my newsreader on my home
computer, I can filter out his nonsense. However, at work I can only
use Google groups, and then I occasionally see his messages while
scrolling through others. He's surely an expert at saying ridiculous
things that make me want to correct him, but I've got to learn to
resist that temptation.
