System V Release 2.1.1 for the 3B20 is available and it includes
HDB UUCP.  It is equivelant to Release 2.1 for the 3B2.

Beyond what was in Release 2.1.0 for the 3B20, 2.1.1
has: asm escapes from C programs, a synchronous write
option to the open(2) system call, perodic/gradual flushing of disk
buffers (to reduce surge when sync happens and to
harden file system),  HDB UUCP, supports additional hardware,
and bug fixes.  One thing that is in 2.1.1 that isn't
even in 3.1 for the 3B2 is tunable TTY priorities.
