Won't these parts work with ordinary EPROMS? That's what we used back when I
was routinely using XILINX parts. It's possible to build a PAL (though the
equations may no longer be on their website) that takes your clock and the
data from a parallel EPROM and makes it into a serial stream compatible with
the XILINX parts. I can't imagine that it's impossible to do that with Altera
and Atmel parts as well.
It's likely that the evaluation boards won't like parallel EPROMs, since the
mfg's want to promote their serieal EEPROMs, but you have tools, right?

Got any more details?
What prom are you looking for?
I'm still playing with some 2064s and 3030s and 3050s, yes they are old
but
the tools were free, the parts cheap and easy to load up with a 2816/64.
