find & grep are your friends:
find /usr/src/linux/. -name \*.c | xargs grep UNIFIX
/usr/src/linux/./init/main.c: printk("POSIX conformance testing by UNIFIX\n");
and looking at start-kernel() in main.c shows that this message
shows up at _every_ boot...

UNIFIX was an early german Linux distributor which contributed quite some
kernel work. unfortuneately they have disapeared:(
