BC3 is only available for Linux and Windows, so it only applies to
Windows currently.

And checking the linux distribution shows only a bcompare executable so
testing for the presence of 'bcomp' will be fine.

also checked the Linux version of BC3 and verified that there's only a
"bcompare" executable.
