Help with archaeology required!

Has any seen or heard of a public domain or cheap unix 2780/3780/BISYNC
implementation which I might use on a sun or HP unix system.  I need
to talk to a very elderly and nopn upgradable BULL DPS6 which only
talks bisync (or even more usefully, "polled VIP").

The requirement is slow file transfer.  For the initiates of DPS6
we run GCOS 3.0 and cant even find a kermit that works!
