I can also think of better ways to spend time than reinventing the wheel
in a manner that most likely would result in hundreds or thousands
of unsupported, unsupportable, and hacked to death versions of software.
Of course, the most likely people to benefit from such a situation
would be AT&T -- which is where everyone will end up running for
supported versions of System V (or System <whatever>) when they
need to actually get work done.  However, this discussion has already
taken place in excruciatingly long form over on UNIX-WIZARDS, and I
don't propose to start it going again here.
