Ah, hmm. It seems maybe this isn't the disaster it seemed. I had a memory
that VST support on Linux was shaky and on dodgy legal footing, but perhaps
it's moved on or I've had the wrong end of the stick.
The "dodgy legal footing" was probably the clash in licensing between
the GPL and Steinberger's VST SDK license which made people unable to
legally distribute VST-enabled linux binaries.
When the VeSTige reverse-engineered VST headers were released that
particular problem went away.
