I'd like to see some examples of code that were not written from
the beginning with the intention of being open source.

OpenAFS might qualify, or it might not. I think it started out more as a university research project, and then turned into a commercial entity which IBM eventually bought. Several years later IBM decided to open-source all the code that they had the rights to open-source.
