AFAICT, all these code changes are already present in current sources
(7.2 beta).  Would you be willing to pull down the current beta and
do a build/regression test?

This info presumably belongs in FAQ_SCO, but I'm a little unclear on its
applicability.  Is it relevant to UnixWare?  Do SCO users all know where
to get these patches?

Could someone come up with a patch to apply to FAQ_SCO?
