Let me try to make this clear.  Yes, the 32132 part appeared in the '86
edition of the 32k data book.  Yes, as George Grenley of NSC has previously
stated, there were a few parts made.  But it never made it to *product*
status.  It is *not* supported by any of Nationals software tools or
documentation.  It is *not* in the current 32k data book, the one dated 1988.

So I advise you not to design it in to any of your new products :-).
