(As long as no one else is answering this...)

Yes, Interactive Systems (in Santa Monica, CA) ported UNIX System V.3.0
to the 386 under contract to AT&T.  386/ix (currently known as
INTERACTIVE UNIX for the 386) is based on this port.  Our current UNIX
version is 2.2, which corresponds to System V.3.2 (with ISC value-added).
