I installed xenix on my laptop yesterday, and even used a video
terminal with it. WOuld be nice to get some software for it,
preferably on floppies ;)

Libg++ appears to be an attempt to compile some GNU compiler to Xenix. Those
days I had experimented with such things as well - and migrated to Minix
soon after :-( Xenix was IMHO not very bugfree, and furthermore, my
hardware was not powerful enough.
While we are at the topic: you are aware that bitsavers/bits/intel has
several xenix-286 disk lying around.
