I see no reason to reject Linux. Functionally its extremely similar and obeys many standards. The reason it's not considered a UNIX is for legal reasons which are no longer relevant, now that UNIX isn't its own proprietary commercial product anymore. (Many UNIXes are. UNIX itself, the standard, is not.)
Things like OSX are a matter of opinion, but if Android is still considered Linux then OSX is still UNIX in my view. Mutated almost beyond recognition but there's still something there.
If we're to reject everything that's not descended from the One True UNIX then this list is going to be fairly scarce

net::server::proto::unix
Net::Server::Proto::UNIX(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Net::Server::Proto::UNIX(3) NAME
Net::Server::Proto::UNIX - Net::Server UNIX protocol. SYNOPSIS
See Net::Server::Proto. DESCRIPTION
Protocol module for Net::Server. This module implements the UNIX SOCK_STREAM socket type. See Net::Server::Proto. Any sockets created during startup will be chown'ed to the user and group specified in the starup arguments. PARAMETERS
The following paramaters may be specified in addition to normal command line parameters for a Net::Server. See Net::Server for more information on reading arguments. unix_type Can be either SOCK_STREAM or SOCK_DGRAM (default is SOCK_STREAM). This can also be passed on the port line (see Net::Server::Proto). However, this method is deprecated. If you want SOCK_STREAM - just use proto UNIX without any other arguments. If you'd like SOCK_DGRAM, use the new proto UNIXDGRAM. METHODS
NS_unix_path/NS_unix_type In addition to the standard NS_ methods of Net::Server::Proto classes, the UNIX types also have legacy calls to NS_unix_path and NS_unix_type. Since version 2.000, NS_unix_path is simply an alias to NS_port. NS_unix_type is now redundant with NS_proto. These methods were missing between version 2.000 and 2.003 but have been returned as legacy bridges. QUICK PARAMETER LIST
Key Value Default # deprecated UNIX socket parameters unix_type (SOCK_STREAM|SOCK_DGRAM) SOCK_STREAM port "filename" undef # more recent usage port "filename / UNIX" port "filename / UNIXDGRAM" LICENCE
