I have run vi(1) on a 3278(-compatible) connected with SNA to an
Amdahl running UTS, but I have no idea how much magic were involved
for that to not kill the CPU.

At the very least either the 3174 or the 3745 must have been involved.

Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
