Under XENIX 386 2.3, to use vector 2 (or 9 -- same thing, really), one must
specify vector 25.  If SCO has done something similar again, there is a new
magic vector number to pick when using vector 9.  This number shouldn't be
11, which is a 'real' vector number.

I don't have much real experience with SCO UNIX -- just XENIX.  Hope this help
a bit.
