Are they downplaying support for Linux? Or is Linux not technically
a "flavor of Unix"?
There are legal issues preventing Linux from being certified.

Can you expound on this? What legal issues? The SCO claims? They have basically been
disproved in court (other than the fact that SCO's corpse won't quit saying "appeal!
appeal! we'll win on appeal!!!")
I was under the impression, I guess mistakenly, that Linux is not UNIX
certified because nobody want to pay for the certification. Which would, in any
case, be lost on the new kernel update.
Another possible reason: UNIX certtificate is owned by group that
consist of commercial UNIX manufacturers. This club may be not
interested in supporting competition of free software.
