And also test and develop actively in .deb based systems (all architectures,
I believe) , *BSDs (at least 6 of them), OS X, Solaris, AIX, HP UX, Win32 and
VMS. OpenVOS reports come in semi-regularly.

*All* of these platforms are ASCII based. We have a pretty good idea what
will break on them if we make changes. Plus all the users of these platforms
help with fixing the reported problems.

We have no such idea for z/OS systems. And no help.

THAT is what this is about.
