The middle way
What would you guess would be the percentage of OO users that complile their own binaries?

Practically speaking, each distribution has its own binaries. I run Gentoo, so rolling my own isn't any trouble and thus I do it. Someone with Red Hat will use the package prepared by them, Debian theirs, etc.

That doesn't quite get to the one-flavor-per-user level but still reduces the available target list quite a bit.
