We have a version of forth here which I believe is public domain,
provided by Kitt Peak National Observatory.  I suggest contacting
them about it.  It was originally written for VMS systems, but
the distribution we have includes unix versions of files where
needed.

I haven't used it much, but certain things (I don't remember what, I
haven't used it for months) seem to cause it to crash.  Also, I'm
not familiar enough with FORTH to say how compatible it is with the
versions you want.

You should be able to reach the observatory at seismo!kpno!person, but
I don't know of someone to contact there.  If you can't contact someone
at Kitt Peak, let me know and I'll try to find help.
