I wonder how long it will be before someone ports it to Linux

There isn’t much point of that, XMMS was basically that — a faithful reproduction of Winamp for Linux between 1997-2007. Since then there’s been a ton of forks — XMMS2, BMP, Youki, Audacious etc.
Audacious is still around, sort of (last release a year ago) and it’s basically Winamp, it can use Winamp skins and has plugins.

I’m sure all of those programs are great, but in the modern world I can’t think of any reason why I wouldn’t ever just use VLC.

Any of them compatible with Winamp plugins? Because that’s my reason for sticking to the past.
