The TUHS stuff matches what we have on Kirk's CDs.

And it looks like one could build a boot tape from what's in sys in the
tarball.  It has the usual standalone files that look like V7 files.

There's usr/man/man8/sysgen.8

sysgen \- UNIX system generation from the distribution tape

I've not tried to grab that tape to see if it has the same bits as in the
archive.
