Yep. Although the only configuration I've heard of was actually a
Linux partition running under IBM's iServer (pServer?), but its the same
IBM/Motorola/Apple CPU.  At the same time the filePro port was/is compiled 
on a G5 running Linux.

Well there is the old AIX port although I don't know if that is still
supported or not, and don't forget Solaris. It wasn't that many years
ago (about seven) that Xenix was supported.

Retro is good. I can dig it.
