The SCO Unixware 2.1 man pages for "pkgproto" and "pkgmk" can be found
from the page at

	http://www.sco.com/cgi-bin/ssl_getmanpage?+1+UW21

and they look fairly similar; I suspect that they're both derived from
the original SVR4 packaging mechanism (as the OSes in question are both
derived from SVR4).
