This is the original, unmodified disk dump. Appears to work but needs to be serialized which we do not have the activation key for any longer.
You haven't lived until you've heard the sound of a Sony 400k drive.

Here's a zip file containing non-serialized versions of the informix binaries. 
Also included is a small C program that can deserialized informix binaries, in either from disk images or tar files. You'd run it like this "deserialize informix1.dc42 informix2.dc42 informix3.dc42"
I don't know whether or not we'd need to also brand the libraries to get them working, haven't tested the informix sample c program libraries, as my Xenix Lisa only has a 5MB disk since it's a 2/5, but the main binary shows a curses style menu, and all the other tools start up. I might revisit this after I get LisaEm to boot Xenix.
You don't know what it's like, you don't have a clue, if you did you'd find yourselves doing the same thing, too, Writing the code, Writing the code
