Common TeX 3.2 is available to ftp at isis.cshl.org:/tex/commontex320.tar[.Z]
It is the final release until late 92.
Ports to Macintosh and PCs should be trivial.
I suspect dynamic allocation used in Common TeX should
fit well on a PC since nodes can span segments.
The diff of Common TeX on a Sun4/SunOS4.1.1 with full optimization:
