The current official UNIX95 list (by vendor) is:
BULL AIX
DIGITAL Digital UNIX
HITACHI HI-UX/WE2
HP HP-UX
IBM AIX; OS/390
NCR NCR UNIX; Solaris
NEC UX/4800
SCO UnixWare
SGI IRIX 6.5
SNI BS2000/OSD; Reliant UNIX
SPISI Reliant UNIX
SUN Solaris
Having had some dealings with the Open Group, I think they do a good
(though frequently misunderstood) job on the whole.
FreeBSD is far from compliance, as regards many standards:
principally because of a distinct lack of interest, although lack
of great piles of ready cash is also a factor.
