I have it running on Xenix 2.3.2.  It required writing some
routines to emulate the BSD specific functions called, shortening
a few file names to make them compatible with SysV 14 character
limits.

I'm using gdbm and it seems to be OK, but I don't fully
understand the modules stuff enough to properly test it.

I rewrote checkin in perl adding a few features such as the
ability to save the files before checkin and ignore binary and
empty files.

I can send patches if you like.

Bill.
