If, by "a86" and "c86", you mean a cross-compiler and cross-assembler
for the Intel 8086, then here's the word:
	They are *NOT* public domain.
C86 is an instantiation (port isn't quite the right word) of the AT&T
Portable C Compiler for the Intel 8086 CPU.  The work was done by Chris
Terman, a Professor at the MIT Laboratory for Computer Science.
Someone told me Terman is no longer at MIT.  I am not sure about the
assembler.  (Terman is the man who did the 68000 compiler that made it
possible for Sun and Unisoft to hit the ground running.)

I have a copy of the Compiler/Assembler/C Library distribution.  If you
are interested in getting a copy, send me electronic mail.  I will need
to see a copy of your AT&T Source License, so if you don't have one of
those, you're out of luck.
