Larry was saying that most of them probably will run under systems
on which they are not "officially" supported, but you may run into
specific incompatibilities later.  I did run into such a situation with
ISC VP/ix on Esix -- Wordperfect 5.1 requires some special fenagaling
to get it to work properly -- and then you do awayl with print spooling.
