Linux would refer to the kernel just like in case of Maemo. It simply
cannot refer to the UI stack, packaging tools, executable format, and what
not as there is a good deal of permutation for those.

In addition to the confusion about "linux-android-g++" working only on
Linux host: one could say "android-g++" means Android works with any kernel
type. :-)
