Why does it make it a bit of a mystery? Different versions of SunOS
have different bits of S5 in them; some don't have "uname", some have it
in "/usr/5bin", and some have it in "/usr/bin". It may also be, in
those versions of SunOS that have it, part of the "System V" optional
software category, which means you don't have it unless you install that
software category.
