AIX 2.2.1 has symbolic links.  The Grand Unified AIX will presumably
have all three.

Oleg Kiselev seems to be complaining about something else, that the
AIX-PS/2 user interface is different from the 4.3 BSD user interface.
This is a revival of the SysV vs. BSD religious controversy under a
different name, and is not worth discussing unless he gets down to
specifics.
