I found it in a SunOs man page:
|   -X             Print expanded system information, one infor-
|                  mation  element  per line, as expected by SCO
|                  UNIX.  The displayed information includes:
| 
|                  o  system  name,  node,   release,   version,
|                     machine, and number of CPUs.
|                  o  BusType,  Serial,  and   Users   (set   to
|                     "unknown" in Solaris)
|                  o  OEM#  and  Origin#  (set  to  0   and   1,
|                     respectively)
 

The output for -X should be (for example):
: System = Atari-MiNT
: Node = AltF4
: Release = 1.15.1 beta 0.6
: KernelID = <unknown>
: Machine = m68k
: BusType = <unknown>
: Serial = <unknown>
: Users = <unknown>
: OEM# = 0
: Origin# = 1
: NumCPU = 1
