Nonsense.  Asking for csh on SysV is asking for relatively little.
There are quite a variety of ports of it out there (I've heard about 5
or 6 over the years), and I had thought that one of them was available
from AT&T to John Q Public; apparently, not so.  Oh, well.

The one I use started out life as part of 2.8BSD (2.7? hmm, it's been
a long time...), in which I fixed a herd of bugs and added most of
4BSD's features.  Unfortunately, mine is landlocked inside AT&T.  But
there really *ought* to be one available to the 3B-buying public.
