Public domain?  You can't be serious!

It costs thousands of dollars to produce such code.  If it were made
public domain anybody could dress it up and sell it.  You can get executables
for an SML compiler from Edinburgh University provided you are going to use
it for research only.  If you want source code I think the best you will
find is Luca Cardelli's old (before standard) compiler for ML or source
for LML (Lazy ML) again for research only.  Luca Cardelli is with Digital
I believe and LML comes from Chalmers (try Lennart Augustsson, email:
auustss@cs.chalmers.se").
