Not much, compared to the vast simplicity that would be achieved if every 
SVR4 system -- particularly Solaris -- were to be exterminated.

At least the death warrant was signed for Tru64 nee OSF/1.

BSD and Linux are now close enough that their differences don't matter to 
most programmers.  SVR4 is a true disaster of incompatibility.
