A cursory glance at the SVR4/386 SGS reveals some pcc fingerprints in the c= ompiler bits at /usr/src/cmd/sgs/cg For instance the machine-dependent bits are shunted off to files including = local.c and local2.c, within these files exist similar entrypoints like lin= eid and zzzcode and arrays like rnames and ccbranches. This is comparing w= ith the version of pcc in V7. I wasn't there so can't speak with authority= but it does look like there is still pcc DNA as of SVR4/386. Looking a bi= t further forward, this compiler seems to still be in use as of 1997's Unix= Ware aka "SVR5". - Matt G.
