There was a version of IRIX recently that didn't include NFS in the base package.
AFAIK, SGI never shipped NFS with its base OS; you always had to purchase it as an unbundled product. Same with nroff; you needed a development kit to get that. I guess they wanted to make it perfectly clear they will pass the licensing fees directly onto their customers.
Pretty stoopid, IMHO.
Until next time...
