The following has been mentioned before in this newsgroup, but this
is a good place to repeat it:

   "...... found failure rates ranging from a low of 18% (HPUX)
    to a high of 43% (NeXTStep). Free software fares much better,
    with the failure rate for GNU utilities at 7% and Linux
    utilities at 9%. ...."
