 How old are the books?  It's moderately recent (late 1990s), and I'm
 fairly sure it's actually second-sourced by Philips from a Motorola
 original (now obsolete, of course ;-))

Signetics was acquired in 1975 by Philips. The current Signetics is a 
Korean assembly and test company which traces its lineage from the 
original Signetics. If there is actually a Signetics logo on the chip 
and the date code is from the late '90s, the number is probably a 
"house" number...

You might look at <http://www.icmaster.com/> and check the logo on the 
chip. There are a number of "S"s that are similar to the original 
Signetics log.
