Ah, anybody else remember those HSH0NAEDA.HSH files proliferating on users’ accounts? (Why do I still remember that name...) And how its fork(2) emulation had to be implemented via a special executable called FORKDUMY.EXE or something like that? (Not that I understood how it worked -- I never used it.)

And when you built Perl on any *nix system for years after, one of the messages that could come from the build config system was “Congratulations, you’re not running EUNICE!”?
