I did an install of the thing on a renamed AT&T SVR4 box (it's an IBCS2 binary) with a before/after date/time/file list snapshot and moved the files from the snapshot over to the BSD box.

It was a while back, meaning I used the SEF/Soren IBCS2 module, and I had to hack the Linux /dev/socksys(?) into the BSD to make it work.

I think it will work fine using the 2.1, or the statfs is expecting a smaller buffer and the ABI module needs to be fixed (I say "or" here because I think it's fixed in -current).
