WRONG, WRONG, WRONG

First of all the original note mentioned System V, not SVR3, so it could
have been Release 2 based.  Secondly, there are two Wollongong implementations
for SVR3, one based on streams, one not based on streams.  The one not based
on streams is the one that we run here at Cal Poly, which AT&T gave us to
run on our 3b2's.  The code does provide the "traditional Berkeley Interfaces",
as well as the AT&T TLI interface, but no streams.
