Hardly... except for gcc which would take some scrambling to replace, the gnu utilities in linux distros could easily be replaced with counterparts from the *bsd's, opensolaris, or any commercial unix version. And the Linux kernel could be swapped with a bsd, opensolaris, or commercial unix in a distro running GNU utilities. There might be a bit of work duplicating each other's exact bugs, but things could have as easily been developed that way in the first place.
