Your implication in the statement "Irix is SysV, with some BSD compatability bits retained" is that System V and BSD are seperate entities, and that therefore Irix is not BSD-derived code. My statement is merely a refutation of that. System V is BSD derived code. Irix is System V derived code. Ergo, Irix is BSD derived code. -- Terry To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
