In that context, Linus is obviously referring to "Linux" the kernel, and not "Linux" the system. The text starts, "Linux is a Unix clone written from scratch by Linus Torvalds". Unix is an entire operating system, including shell, compiler, libraries, etc. The kernel alone is not a clone of Unix. To make the text correct with Linux referring to the kernel, that first line of these release notes ought to be changed.
