That is why I say, if you wish to refer to Unix systems, that means
only those which are true Unix systems, but does not mean FreeBSD,
NetBSD, OpenBSD, DragonFlyBSD, and others because such are not Unix
systems, they are Unix-like systems, as they are not registered and
officially recognized as Unix.
Also see:
Unix-like - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix-like
That is why I mentioned that "GNU and other Unix like systems" would
be better descriptive, IMHO.
