I'm curious: we're running Ultrix 2.2 on GPX/II's.  The 11.2 distribution says
that you can build the distribution for Ultrix 2.0 systems.  But 2.2 systems
don't seem to be easily modified to use the stuff in ./server/ddx/dec/qdss.
Specifically, DEC has a completely different setup for the kernal than 4.3.
You can't replace init.o with the one in the server directory because of a
plethora of rearrangements.

Does this mean we are stuck with their version (10.4), or can we omit applying
these changes to the kernal?  Is the new code faster?
