   4.3BSD-Tahoe (haven't looked at the older 4.3 distribution tapes) definitely
includes source code for cpio, which I stumbled across the other day while
digging through the source directories.  Wheris on our machine reports it as
being located in /usr/src/bin/cpio, and /bin/cpio.  The man page is dated
March 29, 1988, and the source code is marked "(c) 1988 AT&T ... THIS IS
UNPUBLISHED PROPRIETARY SOURCE CODE OF AT&T".
