Can you make those available for public ftp?  There is a *huge* demand
for these under SCO Unix, and no public archive sites have them yet.
One person who has volunteered to provide a home for SCO patches and
binaries is russ@valkyrie.ecn.uoknor.edu.

Building the Gnu utilities is a bit beyond the range of the SCO Unix user;
even with significant experience with 'make', cc, and shell scripts, plus
a 150-meg hard drive, I still fussed around for a week building various
utilities (never succeeding in getting a working g++ or groff).  Users
with limited time, experience or disk space simply won't be able to
install on Gnu on SCO from source.
