+SIEMENS: Reliant UNIX
+       Builds `out-of-the-box'. Dynamic loading is supported. 
+       Large Files and 64-bit integers are supported as of version 5.44
+       and CDS/CDS++ compiler.

+SIEMENS: SINIX
+       MX (Intel) plattform: SINIX-L/M 5.41
+       Builds out-of-the-box with EGCS. Neither dynamic loading nor
+       64-bit integers are suported. Native compiler was not tried
+       mostly because GCC/EGCS builds out-of-the-box as well. If you 
+       succeed with native compiler, send a patch for this file
+       to zsh-workers.

+       Should build out-of-the-box but it was not tested. Neither

+       Note, that this version is obsolete and users are expected to 
+       update to Reliant UNIX.
