FWIW, I was chasing down Whitesmith's PDP-11 compiler a while back and
found that the rights seemed to be owned by TASKING, and they're willing to
write licenses for the old compilers if you pay them (IIRC the price I was
quoted was $500). Media/docs are your problem but at least there's a legal
way to do it. Evidently they bought up the rights to the microcontroller
cross-compilers and own the old stuff as a side-effect.
