Source 2 has a linux port I believe, and it's an engine that other games could (do?) use to get easy linux support for a lot of their codebase. I think that counts for actually useful. Depending on what they mean by "massively-threaded", that might cover some other popular network applications that thread to handle requests, but I'm not sure how much work they would put into a linux specific solution if it complicated their codebase.
