That means Sequent has to acquire one from somewhere else, or write it themselves; either way, some decisions have to be made about how to integrate and some engineering has to be done. Given that the lack of System V was a major headache for Unisys, I'd bet they were sufficiently anxious to have a real SVR3 that they weren't about to hold it up for a non-standard socket library. <csg>
