Subject: Will Xenix 286 software run on Microport 386?

I have been offered an obsolete RM/Cobol (ANSI-74) which has a dev sys and 
runtime for a 286 Xenix. I have heard that Interactive and SCO are binary 
comptable. 

What is the chance of a compiler/dev sys/runtime intended for 286 Xenix
running on Microport System V/386r3, and producing programs that will run
on the Microport System V/386r3? I don't care if it is slow and can't handle
huge programs.

Thanks,

Orville
