I need a Pascal compiler/interpreter for the pdp-11/70 and/or the 68000.
Does anyone out there know where I could find such a beastie. I am
especially interested in acquiring the UCB Pascal system, but any other
suggestions would be appreciated.

Well, assuming you have a 4.2 license, you can (almost) use the "pc" provided
for the VAXen. They have #ifdef'd code for the 68000. The only things you need
to do is re-write pc2.c (expands I/O calls + others) and provide a new libpc,
which, since libpc is largely in C, shouldn't be too hard.
The only problem is that you're assuming that the "pc" front-end is correct
for the 68000. It's not clear to me if this is true yet, but I'll be more
confident in a couple of weeks.
This isn't how the Sun people do it though -- they seem to have made more
changes in the front end (mainly I/O functions it appears) for some reason.
