That would make sense. SysV is about twenty years old,

Twenty years is pretty much when USL got out of the UNIX biz entirely. System V actually
started thirty years ago or so. I worked on System V over BSD project with Doug Gwyn
when still at BRL and I left there in 1987. Amusingly, I continued to find copies of the
"Ron" shell kicking around for decades after that.
