   Two thing occur to me:
	   a) did other BSD sites have these problems?
	   b) will it still work on SysV?

I certainly did at Oracle.  (On a Sun 3/280 running SunOS 4.0 and 3.5.)
Certainly, quite a few of the bugs were in code that no one else seems
to be exercising (such as the code used only by non-leaf sites).

As for breaking SysV, well, we've tried to keep it portable, but that's
what beta tests are for....
