Here's a summary of information I've received as a result of my question
about running 'eqn' on a vanilla Linotron 202:

   Some folks at the University of Texas developed a modified version of 'eqn'
that generates brackets and braces by scaling up the full-sized characters.
It doesn't support 'floor' or 'ceiling' which 'eqn' builds using parts of
brackets.

    This is the only way I've heard of for running 'eqn' on a Linotron.  We
have a copy of their software and it works pretty well.  We're missing some
of the usual math characters, in particular "not equal" (which we can 
fabricate out of / and =) and "not" (which we're simulating with a tilde
for now).
