No. The general project policy is that data files are only compatible
across one platform, ie, one OS and machine architecture. (I'm pretty
sure this is stated somewhere in the docs, but am too tired to go
looking for chapter and verse.)
It might happen to work, if you're talking the same Intel-ish CPU type
on both ends ... but if it fails, don't call us.
