I just sent the disks to P-H this week.  If past experience is any guide,
I would guess availability should be 2-3 months.  If you absolutely can't
wait, you can get 1.2 now and the upgrade kit later.  The upgrade kit
consists of one disk with the current binary C compiler (cpp, cem, opt, cg, 
asld, libc.a), plus disks 6 through 10 of the PC distribution, i.e. the
complete set of 1.3 sources.  Also ELLE and patch are in there somewhere.
Using these sources you can upgrade completely.
