Is that the one Dan Day worked on?  I'm pretty sure he did that
before I got there, but as I remember the story, he played the
game and got to the point where there wasn't really an endgame.
So he wrote a FORTRAN decompiler to turn the binary into source
that he could modify, wrote an endgame, and then recompiled
the results.
