It is with a very heavy heart that I must tell you that this is no longer
available.  I called them immediately, and Ms. Ella Lund-Thomsen doesn't
work there anymore.  The fellow I did reach seemed somewhat knowledgeable
of the situation, and said that they dropped support over two years ago,
and no-longer even have a copy themselves to give away.

I could just about cry.  I've had one too many disappointments chasing this
rabbit trail.  I WANT SOME NEWER SOFTWARE.  Get BSD, I thought.  It'll
be around for ever.  Yeah, sort of -- just that no-one will see a port
for my CPU to me!  Ah, well, maybe 4.9 [sic] will be public domain...
