Brian O'Hagan asks about these two chips. As far as I know the floating point
ROM MC6839 was never produced. However the code inside it has been released
by Motorola to PD and can be had from cabrales.wisc.edu, file /pub/6809/MISC/
fb09.tar and possibly used on a 6809 system. Also, I never heard about a
real system using MC6844, so it is possible that it did not materialize,
either.
