He was probably talking about C Shell, which isn’t the same thing at
all. All it shares is a letter in the name and some superficial
syntactic traits.

  In retrospect I am certain you are correct.  He may even have said 
"C script" and I in *my* IT infancy deleted that term from my 
recollection.  He was usually referring to things he would do on the 
Novell server he operated for years.

  It was a 40 node network for insurance folks.  All 386s and 486s, 
and they spent a REAL pretty penny on Thomes Conrad Network Systems 
network adapter cards, and hubs.

  They all ran DesqViewX, believe it or not, and IF he had gotten 
TCP/IP istead of the proprietary TCNS protocols, the clients could be 
accessed through DesqViewX and made to run a process remotely, which 
was the first, earliest use of distributed processing on PCs back 
then.  Pretty cool stuff for 1992.

That was so you could alter and recompile the unix kernel to reflect how
your Unix machine was configured. (Just like we used to configure and
compile our own Linux kernels back in the early 2000s or thereabouts.)

When Solaris II was released, there was no longer a need to recompile
the kernel (for the same reason that we no longer compile our Linux
kernels today either - loadable modules) and there was no longer a 
built-in C compiler supplied.

So that was when I downloaded and began using 'gcc' because Sun's
own C Compiler cost fifteen arms and a dozen legs.

I've heard about Sun's high prices when gcc was free for the download.
I've used gcc on old C programs, and found it really didn't like those 
old source files complaining about old style declarations.

So, I downloaded the free Solaris x86 and well as Solaris compiler set, 
which is now free, and the C compiler is a bit different than gcc.
I had to use -Xt when compiling the old source files, and it worked 
great.  The -Xt is supposed to help with K&R C constructs.

But the OpenGroup standards still requires that the C compiler be 
present. At least at last reading about two years ago.

It means that macOS passed over 40,000 tests in The Open Group test
suites, plus one of the industry standard C99 compiler test suites
(Perennial or Plum Hall).

It doesn't matter if some required parts (such as the C compiler)
aren't included by default, as long as there is a way to set up
a conforming system.

The first UNIX I used (in 1990) was AT&T SYSV5R3.2 on a 20MHz 80386.

It didn't have a C compiler, so I learned shell scripting.

I would guess that in 1990 it wasn't a requirement back then.
The latest openGroup did state it though.  Seems like the new standard 
isn't adhered to any way.

I first ran UNIX on a PDP11/45 with a Floating-point processor and a
memory management unit in the late 1970s. It certainly did have a C
compiler. We diddled the kernel a little so we could use disk files
greater than 65535 bytes. In those days, the kernel was written in
assember (6 files, IIRC). To build a kernel, one got in the right
directory and typed

as a?.s

and the resulting a.out was the new kernel.

Ours had *two*. One was for the 6809 target we were writing code for :=)
And it was possibly the worst C compiler I have ever been exposed to. 
Worse than even the BDS CP/M z80/808o compiler that I learnt on..
