I think a LITES/FreeBSD effort would be neat, then you could run the OSF1
server as wel and FreeBSD and NetBSD  and other servers.. :)

talking of such things..

I've been thinking of adding a switch to allow
environment usage when interetting symbolic links..
(in namei/lookup)
I see that LITES already has this..
what it the thought on this?

I like the idea of 
/usr/$OS/bin etc.
