You might want to change the "OSF/1" to "OSF/2"; as far as I know,
OSF/1, or at least the first release of it, will be based on a version
of Mach that does *not* move the part of the UNIX environment
traditionally implemented in the kernel out into libraries and servers,
but has it still in the kernel.
