COM is just an implementation of Interfaces on Windows.
CORBA also knows Interfaces, Java too.

Yes. The interfaces implementation is cross platform.
What you don't have on Linux is ActiveX: a central
repository/factory for Interfaces on the system.
(Unless you want to use the GNOME and KDE CORBA services)
That just means that you can't use dual interfaces on Linux,
but this is not a problem.
