Berry is probably going to be out of a job soon anyway. 

Release 7.0 of the regular Mac O/S will have virtual memory
and a pre-emptive scheduler. At that point, who will really
care to run yet another crufty unix port on a random box which
is overpriced because of the Mac "PROMS" it contains? AUX is
already down in the noise level, and after release 7.0 no
commercial software developer will have the remotest excuse it
use it.
