The networking stuff came from Berkeley, and was pretty separate from
the rest of UNIX. The Bell Labs Research UNIX was moving towards having
the network as files - can't remember if it already was in V9 or V10,
but definitely in Plan 9.

SysV stuff came from USG/USL, the less said about that the better...
