Hi all,

I was recently playing around with iBCS support in FreeBSD 3.4/4.0, and =
noticed that there hasn't been much done since 96/97.  From what I can =
see now, FreeBSD can't run SCO OpenServer 5.0 ELF binaries, which is a =
feature I need desperately -- Linux has this functionality.

If anyone is working on iBCS, let me know, otherwise I'll start hacking =
away at the the emulation code to allow SCO OSR5 ELF stuff.

Thanks,
