Nope, you want the version of 1 April 1989.

   is available from uunet via anonymous ftp.

The canonical distribution point is a.cs.uiuc.edu:pub/gnuemacs/elisp.
Other sites (like ours) maintain caches which may be useful to you too.

   It should also be available via uucp, but I am not aware of the
   mechanics of such a transaction.

You can get it via anonymous UUCP from osu-cis; write me for
directions if you need them.
