The M7264 (KD11-F et al) can take EIS/FIS or DIS (DIBOL Instruction
Set ... never seen one of these in real life). No mention in
the LSI Systems Maint. Volumes of any CIS for this variant. It
is mentioned for the later KDF11-BA (M8189), so it's not that the
manuals predate CIS or anything.

I'd agree that it seems unlikely. It may be that someone has
a box that says 11/03 but has been upgraded at some point in
its life and no longer harbours an M7264.
