ever heard of warzone 2100? the company went bust and the game stopped being sold, and everntually they made it open source and free. within 6 months, fans had translated it to work on linux and macos, aswell as fixing a number of bugs.(which is about 1 half of the time it took tron to re-write Transport Tycoon Deluxe as OpenTTD, without even fixing bugs or adding any features.)
EDIT: i looked it up, took then 6 months, not 3. and even then the multi-platform changed introduced some bugs, which were worked out over another couple of months.
