Frankly, I don't see why none of the forks/sporks/distros floating around are looking at the modernized, more-featureful versions of the System V tools available from the Heirloom Tools project. IIRC, most of them are even CDDL-licensed (as OpenSolaris code was a starting point for most of them) so they should fit right in with the rest of the code. If I had the time and energy to do so, I'd go ahead and make such a distro myself, but I don't, so I guess I'm left wondering why everyone is looking only at the options of either moving to a BSD or GNU userland, rather than the superior options of using what is essentially an enhanced version of what already exists.
