Apple uses a lot of different technology than Linux does, though. Even down to their fileutils, cp, find, mv, chmod, etc. are all BSD-variants and not GNU; they ship with cURL and not wget; and they use/prefer LLVM/Clang over GCC, and so on.
They also ship software like OpenSSL, but they actively discourage its use in Mac software in favour of SecureTransport.
Don't get me wrong, they should give back (and they do), but it's kind of surprising how much of the standard Linux stack they don't actually ship.
