It's derived from Bell code and is not public domain.  (Actually, even the
non-Bell parts probably have Berkeley copyright notices on them, so none
of it is PD.)  Berkeley is actively interested in de-Belling their stuff,
but I don't think they've done csh yet.

Why on Earth would anyone want to clone that mess? :-)
