I could do AIX 4.2.x and 4.3.x, but the tests would have to be fairly
automated.  (Actually, I have to admit that I did not test the latest
releases for whether they work on AIX at all - no time, I'm still at
OpenSSH 1.2.3 plus private patches).

I could also do SCO Unix 3.2v4.2, as soon as a port exists - didn't find
time for *that* either.


It would be immensely helpful for automatizing those tests if someone
could set up a public (?) cvs repository, so that we don't have to
download whole tarballs all the time.
