jgt, thanks for the fast reply.
Sorry about "all" the threads, opened one in the BSD section for BSD binary compatibility and another here, for SCO binary compatibility, just trying to comply with forum rules.
The applications themselves are a bit tricky, as they are proprietary software, and possible uses threads as well.
I also got a hold of the same software (almost) for Solaris, and that is also a route I am taking, but there are some versions issues that creates bugs.
I did hear that some DG/UX binaries "simply work" on an early version of Unixware, and would love to give it a shot.
The binaries are not stripped, but they are dynamically linked, mainly to /usr/dglib/libc.so.1
They do not require a driver or directed to hw devices.
File output from Unixware 7 (also DG/UX, same output):
ELF 32-bit LSB executable 80386 Version 1
File output from OpenServer 5:
ELF 32-bit LSB executable 80386, dynamically linked, not stripped, no debug (linux?)
Other statuses - BSD elf info says it's SVR4

elf32_checksum
GELF_CHECKSUM(3) BSD Library Functions Manual GELF_CHECKSUM(3)
NAME
elf32_checksum, elf64_checksum, gelf_checksum -- return the checksum of an ELF object
LIBRARY
ELF Access Library (libelf, -lelf)
SYNOPSIS
#include <libelf.h>
long
elf32_checksum(Elf *elf);
long
elf64_checksum(Elf *elf);
#include <gelf.h>
long
gelf_checksum(Elf *elf);
DESCRIPTION
These functions return a simple checksum of the ELF object described by their argument elf. The checksum is computed in way that allows its
value to remain unchanged in presence of modifications to the ELF object by utilities like strip(1).
Function elf32_checksum() returns a checksum for an ELF descriptor elf of class ELFCLASS32.
Function elf64_checksum() returns a checksum for an ELF descriptor elf of class ELFCLASS64.
Function gelf_checksum() provides a class-independent way retrieving the checksum for ELF object elf.
RETURN VALUES
These functions return the checksum of the ELF object, or zero in case an error was encountered.
ERRORS
These functions may fail with the following errors:
[ELF_E_ARGUMENT] Argument elf was NULL.
[ELF_E_ARGUMENT] Argument elf was not a descriptor for an ELF file.
[ELF_E_ARGUMENT] The ELF descriptor elf was not opened for reading or updating.
[ELF_E_CLASS] For functions elf32_checksum() and elf64_checksum(), ELF descriptor elf did not match the class of the called function.
[ELF_E_HEADER] The ELF object specified by argument elf had a malformed executable header.
[ELF_E_RESOURCE] An out of memory condition was detected during processing.
[ELF_E_SECTION] The ELF object specified by argument elf contained a section with a malformed section header.
[ELF_E_VERSION] The ELF object was of an unsupported version.
