The assumption does not follow. The ToolChest is a service through which
AT&T can distribute software that they may or may not wish to support, and
everything in it has a price [but usually not large], and the source is
available. 

Ksh is now being bundled with various systems, for example ULTRIX.
I would not be surprised to see it in the next release of SunOS as well.

The public domain ksh (originally by Erik Gisin) is a subset of ksh,
something like a minimalist version. By and large, it works.
