Shared Lib Question (ISC)

[Guy Harris]

>Apparently, you haven't used many OSes. Most OSes do many things badly.

Irrelevant.  I said that different OSes provide various functions in
different fashions, which means that the fact that different OSes
implement shared libraries isn't any sort of valid argument against
shared libraries; your statement doesn't have any relevance to that.

So what's an OS that doesn't "do many things badly"?

OK, so what would you consider a "right" implementation of them?  What
don't you like about, say, Multics's implementation, or VMS's, or
Aegis's, or SunOS 4.x/S5R4's, or OSF/1's, or....?
