OSF/1 last shipped circa 1995, right? If so, clearly vanilla OSF/1 long ago lost its "reasonable portability target" status. However, OSF/1's successor Tru64 UNIX is still very much alive. HP is still releasing new versions and says they'll support it at least through 2012. See <http://h30097.www3.hp.com/pdf/Tru64_Roadmap_Current.pdf>. I see that the recent patch talks about "OSF/1". It might be helpful for comments like that to mention Tru64 as well, as many folks don't know the technical history behind Tru64 and won't know that OSF/1 comments often apply to Tru64.
