Umm, err, V7 also came out of the death star, although it came from a
different place therein.  S3 came from a slightly pre-V7 release (*much
much* closer to V7 than to V6).

Then again, you can't hold AT&T (from whose code *all* the aforementioned
UNIXes ultimately derives) responsible for what other people do to it when
bringing it up on their machines, so his S3 problems may have had nothing to
do with S3 as it came out of AT&T.
