Try Esix.  I am running Esix 5.3.2 Rev D.  I have the unlimited version with
Development System.  You get TCP/IP, Streams, RFS, X11R3, Editing package (no
nroff,man, or troff though.  I use the text package from Xenix), and others.
I have had no problems with it and like the price, around $800 for my package.
Motif, NFS, and the documentation are extra.
