This sounds like what TI calls 'shrink-dip'.  It uses .07" pin spacing,
with .4" row spacing (for 28-pin socket) to .75" row spacing (64 pins).
I saw some in the latest Mouser Electronics catalog, with 24 to 64 pin sizes.
Their number is 800-346-6873, and their part number is 151-7xx-STT
(xx = pin count)
