It turns out that even though the article in DiSCOver makes it sound
(to me) like 2.3 is the merged release, it is not.  It just has more
sVr3.2 features.  Here's a note I got from amys@sco:

From: sco!amys (Amy Snader)

Release 2.3 has the same basic init paradigm as release 2.2,
however, the merged product release (probably to be numbered 3.2)
will have an inittab-reading init, with Xenix functionality
built on top of it (i.e., sulogin).
 
Sorry about any misunderstanding,
