Would you mind stating the source of this information?

According to a posting by Alex White of MKS a few weeks ago, the MKS Toolkit
does not contain any AT&T source code; the tools are complete re-implementations
rather than ports of UNIX tools.

We have two diametrically opposed statements here; I am inclined to believe
Alex, and feel that contradictory statements need some documentation to be
justified.
