Yes & Yes.


However, be aware that tools/fuzz-test.sh sets some environment 
variables (so things like more rigorous memory allocation checking and 
etc are done).

tools/test-fuzzed-cap.sh can be used to test a specific capture file 
with the same setup that fuzz-test.sh uses.

Also: it's sometimes the case that a failure seen on one O/S will not 
occur on a different O/S.
