No. At least two people have told us (months ago) that they were working on
it. No one has delivered anything. If someone wants to do it and contribute
it back, fine.
This, by the way, is a perfect example of why SVR4 is better than SCO.
We have a single binary kit, ~20MB compressed, that works on SVR4 from 7
different vendors. There are NO (none, nada, zip, zero) differences. Not
in the server, not in the clients, not in the libraries. And the server
(under SVR4.0.4, anyhow) supports local connections from SCO binaries
(i.e. I run an SCO binary on my SVR4 box, and it just works).
Was someone mentioning "standards"?
