I suggest the Plan 9 source.
Kernel source: http://plan9.bell-labs.com/sources/plan9/sys/src/9
Command source: http://plan9.bell-labs.com/sources/plan9/sys/src/cmd
It's not full of GNU crap, the kernel isn't layers of crap slathered
on by amateurs... extremely understandable and pleasant to look
through.
