i recall at&t publicly saying that sVr4 would support anything and
everything that bsd did, as well as all of sVr3.  and there was talk
of sVr5 being a clean-sheet kernel rewrite...

yes, there was always a lot of bsd code in sV.  i remember having to
recompile vi in sVr3 because we had to edit huge [then - >250k] files
and the sV-std flags didn't have vm turned on like the bsd-std flags.

this was [gulp] 15 years ago, in my first official sysadm job.
