Does anyone have access to source for IC-Prolog or any of its
descendants?  What machines will it run on?

I was reading its description in ``Logic Programming'' by Clark and
Tarnlund, and felt that it addressed many of the features of Prolog
that have bothered me.  Many of the non-logical aspects are said to be
removed.  Arithmetic is reversible (use multiplication to find
factors, for instance).

The paper said that IC-Prolog had been used at Imperial College (where
it was written) and Syracuse.  Anyone out there have experience with
the implementation?  I am curious as to how expensive it was to remove
the non-logical bits.
