I made a script to allow me to run OS2007 apps directly under
OS2008 by installing the appropriate libraries.
http://austinche.name/maemo/compat-os2007.sh
I hand picked the compatibility libraries to install mainly from
just testing various apps to see what they needed, so it's quite
possible more libraries are needed.
I've tested and successfully run several bora compiled programs
including osso-xterm (the old, more usable version), fmradio, and
aisleriot. There are some noticeable bugs in many apps but most
seem usable at least and seems to me to be a good solution until
more apps are ported. Of course, all os2008 apps should still run
normally.
Works for me but use at your own risk. Your deb packages and
dependencies could be seriously screwed up.
