Summary: Request for info

I am interested in porting a FORTH environment to a multi-processing system.
Does anyone out there know of a good source for the inner interpreter that I
can use?  I would prefer source code in assembler [that's reasonably well
documented :-] for a processor like the 6809, 68000, PDP-11, etc.  However,
a pointer to a useful book describing the necessary details would be sufficient.

I am interested in building a multi-processing object oriented version of FORTH
that would use message passing to objects on different processors.  (How I'm
going to resolve these messages is another point altogether... :-) :-)

Also, any pointers towards implementation details of object-oriented versions
of FORTH would be greatly appreciated.
