This is not generally how software is designed to work, remember time's arrow.
New operating systems are designed to provide backward compatibility for older applications.
Operating systems aren't too good at providing forward compatibility for applications compiled on operating systems from the future.
If it was an open-source program you would have the opportunity to rebuild from scratch.

perl::ostype
Perl::OSType(3pm) Perl Programmers Reference Guide Perl::OSType(3pm)
NAME
Perl::OSType - Map Perl operating system names to generic types
VERSION
version 1.002
SYNOPSIS
use Perl::OSType ':all';
$current_type = os_type();
$other_type = os_type('dragonfly'); # gives 'Unix'
DESCRIPTION
Modules that provide OS-specific behaviors often need to know if the current operating system matches a more generic type of operating
systems. For example, 'linux' is a type of 'Unix' operating system and so is 'freebsd'.
This module provides a mapping between an operating system name as given by $^O and a more generic type. The initial version is based on
the OS type mappings provided in Module::Build and ExtUtils::CBuilder. (Thus, Microsoft operating systems are given the type 'Windows'
rather than 'Win32'.)
USAGE
No functions are exported by default. The export tag ":all" will export all functions listed below.
os_type()
$os_type = os_type();
$os_type = os_type('MSWin32');
Returns a single, generic OS type for a given operating system name. With no arguments, returns the OS type for the current value of $^O.
If the operating system is not recognized, the function will return the empty string.
is_os_type()
$is_windows = is_os_type('Windows');
$is_unix = is_os_type('Unix', 'dragonfly');
Given an OS type and OS name, returns true or false if the OS name is of the given type. As with "os_type", it will use the current
operating system as a default if no OS name is provided.
