i've the variant in use in sources/contrib/forsyth/refer.tgz. see INSTALL.
it could do with much more work (on the strange
source file partitioning, and more seriously on all those fixed-size char arrays),
but at least a few of the ancient problems have been corrected
(limits on list memory size, and a buggy implementation of aho-corasick).  i've used it
for years without too much fuss.  one difference from earlier ones
is that you're required to use refer/pubindex.
