Well, unless you can specifically identify what you call "rough eges",
nobody knows where you are coming from.  For all I know at this point,
you could be a BSD biggot [;-)], and since SCO UNIX might have a few
of the BSD features you like, already compiled and installed, you
might not find as many rough edges.

Since I'm a SysV biggot, I personally feel that AT&T's release of
SysV/386r3.2.2 is smoother than any of the others.

In reality, any derrivative of UNIX System V/386 Release 3.2 should be
compatible in more ways than just the ABI, and it turns out that SCO's
isn't in some ways, such as the behaviour of 'cc'.  Backwards
compatability is one thing, but making MuSh-C the default is, IMHO,
taking things a bit far!
