Let me tell you my solution to the problem of the lack of SCO support from
the Ada community.  There is a surprisingly high proportion of POS machines
that run SCO, but I guess not too may people are doing that sort of work in
Ada.

I found that I could execute executables built on Linux (Red Hat 5.0) on SCO
5.0.2 with the aid of a Linux emulator which maps Linux system calls to SCO
system calls.

I don't have the information in presentable form at the moment, but if there
is interest, I can gather the stuff up in the next couple of days and put it
on my FTP site.
