Not too stupid, but you have to make up your mind, what kind of audience is the reciever of your program. If it is directed towards a very special part of the community, then you can be sure they have the right tools installed, in order to get your program working. But if it is aimed at the mainstream, where every joe, with his newly installed linux box, should be able to run it, then you might want to aim your program at a niche where it is expected to run on a standard installation, and not rely on something like ADA or fortran.
