One ponders, how simpler could UW/Panda become if support for ancient systems were swept aside?

Not much, compared to the vast simplicity that would be achieved if every SVR4 system -- particularly Solaris -- were to be exterminated.

At least the death warrant was signed for Tru64 nee OSF/1.

BSD and Linux are now close enough that their differences don't matter to most programmers. SVR4 is a true disaster of incompatibility.

What about the mailbox formats? Are there things which could proceed much more smoothly if support for "X" were dropped?
