no SCO ISAM in COFF format under OpenDesk Top ??

Does SCO have a version of their SCO ISAM product in COFF
library format? Having purchased the OpenDesk Top package
after all the SCO's pr on support for standards (X/Open,
SVID, POSIX, etc), I find it hard to believe that the ISAM
product exists only in OMF library format. Since one
can't link OMF and COFF together, it's impossible to have
both ISAM, and the WINDOW/MENU/FORMS (for example) linked into
the one image. Try using {get,put}msg (a la STREAMS) with ISAM
too. Is it that hard to port a mere ISAM implementation?
