Theoretically you can reverse engineer Real codecs built for Linux (they
are available as .so files), but in practice that's really difficult, even
if you know how the compiler used by Real is making assembler code.
-As for QuickTime, it's possible to play some old movies and this
-capability will be added to mplayer soon, but newer clips are all Sorenson
-encoded, and that codec is built-in deep in the QT executable, there's
-no way to use it.
