One thing that wasn't clear from people's comments is that AIX PS/2,
a Locus kernel with Sys V.2 stuff grafted in, is pretty much a
different animal than AIX RT.  It also has a fair number of features
that aren't shared by AIX RT; right off the top of my head, I'd
enumerate job control and >14 character file names on the native
file system.  It's not very useful to confuse the two of them.
