BOTH! I can't quote AT&T licensing, but since COFF is their native format
and Xenix binary support, VP/ix and DOSMerge support were basically the
whole idea behind V.3.2, anything that says it is Unix System V/386 3.2
will have that support. The key is realizing things that aren't V.3.2
based (like AIX PS/2...)
