finger 1.37 lib/os.c doesn't compile on Interactive Unix 2.2.1, because
it uses S_IFCHR:

		if ((finfo.st_mode & S_IFCHR) &&
		    (stat (ACCT_FILE, &finfo) == 0) &&
		    ((file = open (ACCT_FILE, O_RDONLY)) >= 0))
		  {

ISC doesn't define the S_IF... bits in its POSIX mode; it only defines
the S_IS... macros.  I think the S_IF bits might be used in other places
in the source as well; perhaps a grep is in order.
