The binary is an 0405 a.out file. I'm told by Norman Wilson, who has
paper copies of the 2nd & 3rd Edition manuals, that 0405 binaries didn't
exist in 2nd & 3rd Edition.
I also believe that the files in the s2.tar tarball sent in by Dennis
are a whole year off, and so the date above should be Apr 14, 1972.
That dates the file just before the release of 2nd Edition.
I really need to sit down & outline my reasons for believing that the
dates are a year out. I'll do so soon & email it here!
Cheers all,
Warren

There's a
binary of dc from either 1st or 2nd Edition in the PUPS Archive:
-r---wxrw- 0/0 6846 Apr 14 06:50 1973 bin/dc
Wouldn't that be the Third Edition with that timestamp? I won't
comment again about the permissions.
