Are you saying here that Maple V for Solaris/x86 does indeed work with the=
=20
SVR4 emulation in -CURRENT right now and you're digging for that HDD in ord=
er=20

Solaris/x86 does work with SVR4 compat?

Perhaps it would be better to keep the compat bits as ports? It looks to me=

like there is a certain interest in them, just not among src committers.
