It is unclear what purpose what serves these days.

Run: what /*bin/* /usr/*bin/*

It shows a few shell-script $OpenBSD, yacc/lex related
goo, and it looks like only ksh has the old @(#) marker.

It is a pretty strange program at this point.  I am not sure
we want to add more version strings to binaries, I think that
era is over.
