What BSD'ification are you referring to?
We have imported some BSD utilities to close feature gaps, where we
don't have an open source equivalent.
POSIX compliance is important. If you think we're abandoning SYSV in
favor of BSD then I think you're mistaken, and I would like to
understand why specifically you believe this to be the case.
