Well that is the question, I believe, down to the root, and were they authorized to do that. If it was a previous licensee, how do you know they were allowed? All you have to do is follow some of the links. It provides information about the origin. At the time I posted that comment, I didn't know and hadn't yet found it.
The important part is the date: 1979. It predates SCO Unix, and invalidates their claim of prior art.

I've heard analysts (not SCO) say in some cases the codebase could go back "30" years, and 79 wasn't that far back.
Sorry, I'm not going to follow your links if you don't even know what they say yourself, which you don't seem to.
What is the origin, and how can it positively broken from Sys V which predates Unix 7?
