No.

Only Linux seems to require a dictator at the helm.

Even Python, which calls Guido the dictator-for-life, does not have a single person who reviews everything. It has a group of committers who pour code into the system.

Tcl was much better off once Ousterhout was no longer in the path of code submission.

The *BSD bunch have used CVS forever, and yet have had groups of main committers for years. This is even true of OpenBSD who are absolute code-nazis.
