I might point out that the entire "freed" sources from 4.3-reno are
located, in the standard source tree, at
wuarchive.wustl.edu:~ftp/unix/4.3bsd-reno.  Also, there are 4.3
sources available at gatekeeper.dec.com under pub/BSD, and at some
locations at UCB itself.

For example, the FTP user agent (upon which my hybrid 4.3 UA + GNU
Readline/History FTP is based on, write me for details) is in
wuarchive.wustl.edu:~ftp/unix/4.3bsd-reno/usr.bin/ftp.  There's also a
lot more of this kind of interesting stuff there, including much
kernel code for i386, VAX, and some other architectures.  Whenever I
want to get a "definitive" BSD source, I look to wuarchive first.
