I'll throw my 2c in. Our 3B5 has only sdb (SYSV/R2.) It core dumps
about half the time when trying to start. Leaves you kind of high
and dry. I'd rather see any efforts put into porting dbx (and adb)
rather than trying to fix the beast. I like dbx but sometimes I
just need something without an opinion (adb), sdb I could live
without given those two. Then again, I don't think the 3Bx should
be used as a basis for decisions about anything.
