i dont even know what a "DTS representative" ... my guess is you're punting me to the marketing team or something ? how is it a forward looking statement if 10.5 has already been certified ?

I think Terry's just being cautious. We've already stated publicly that Leopard is UNIX03 compliant and will, of course, ship that way so you can infer from this that it passed the test in question well enough to pass muster with The Open Group.

i guess it isnt possible to ask for a fix for 10.4.x ... especially since i dont have any sort of customer $$$ backing the request, just some lamer who wants to compile the kernel sanely.

It is entirely within the realm of possibility that Apple ran the UNIX03 conformance tests on a UFS filesystem. So, on Tiger, you'd get the same results if you also used one. Terry, I think, originally suggested doing this on a UFS disk image. If it is the case that Apple did run the complete test suite on UFS, you could probably make the case to the opengroup that the tests ought to be run on the system's default filesystem, however, since 10.5 has already been certified as UNIX, this would not force any change until a later release.
