Answering SCO Bit by Bit - The Robert Swartz Memo, Take 2

A reader points out that SCO's legal page [http://www.sco.com/company/legal/update/] seems to be changing. Since that likely indicates what they are planning going forward and what cards they imagine they are holding, we at Groklaw thought itwould be useful to answer them, item by item.
Of course, we have already doneso in the past, but because SCO has new management, we'd like to offer help by showing exactly where on Groklaw they can find materials regarding each item.
So, let's start with item number one on their list for this article, the 1999 Robert Swartz memo [PDF].

BRANDELF(1)						    BSD General Commands Manual 					       BRANDELF(1)

NAME
brandelf -- mark an ELF binary for a specific ABI SYNOPSIS
brandelf [-lv] [-f ELF_ABI_number] [-t string] file ... DESCRIPTION
The brandelf utility marks an ELF binary to be run under a certain ABI for FreeBSD. The options are as follows: -f ELF_ABI_number Forces branding with the supplied ELF ABI number. Incompatible with the -t option. These values are assigned by SCO/USL. -l Writes the list of all known ELF types to the standard error. -v Turns on verbose output. -t string Brands the given ELF binaries to be of the string ABI type. Currently supported ABIs are ``FreeBSD'', ``Linux'', and ``SVR4''. file If -t string is given it will brand file to be of type string, otherwise it will simply display the branding of file. EXIT STATUS
Exit status is 0 on success, and 1 if the command fails if a file does not exist, is too short, fails to brand properly, or the brand requested is not one of the known types and the -f option is not set. EXAMPLES
The following is an example of a typical usage of the brandelf command: brandelf file brandelf -t Linux file SEE ALSO
