It works much better in -current due to work by swallace@FreeBSD.org. However, I do know that the FlexLM license manager doesn't work in -current, so someone is lending me their SCO WP CD for a while and I'm going to be hacking on the code to make it work. I should be getting the CD in about a month (it's coming from Africa. :), so I'll know more then.
