It depends what you're meaning with SYSV modules:
  1. semaphores, shared memory, message queues: Yes.
  2. STREAMS (see: Rago, SysV Network Programming): No.
  3. binary compatiblity to SysV: Yes, but only partial
     support (see ibcs2(8))
  4. SysV run-levels: No.

If you want to host _virtual_ servers (every customer has root
access in their own virtual environment), consider jail(8):
