I beg to differ on this.  Xenix passes the SVID standards, thus making it a
System V OS with another name.  As far as I can see Xenix is a full           
implimentation of System V with some extras (SCO development contains dos/cross
stuff etc...).  To be abit more accurate on the naming of Xenix one might call
it:  Xenix System V Release 2.
