My mistake, Pakistani Pashto does have retroflex
consonants, but not the retroflex sibilants /s./ and /z./; instead it has
reflexes of /x/ and /g/.
Pashto, on the other hand, has initial xw- and
many other initial consonant combinations, not to mention retroflex consonants
(except in Pakistan) that came from
somewhere.
