Here is the summary I promised. There is not much good news. Nothing more than the original info. There doesn't even seem to be an email address to order the tape from berkeley. A copy is also going to a few aus groups. I haven't listed it but archie did show a copy of magic V6 in someones ftp archive but it was only a binary and it was missing the libraries to start it up. (that was osceola.cs.ucf.edu in the /pub/vlsi/bin ) It is not much use in that other things seem to be required. Anyway - thanks to all who replied. I am still looking and would appreciate any new info.

Apparently the FBI intended to make chips. An alternative that you may want to consider are the Caltech tools, Analog, WOL etc. from Carver Mead's group, we use them here and I have not seen any export restrictions or disclaimers in the source.
