Here is some info from a while back ...
There is definitely interest, but the UCLA version, instead of being
offloaded on the mainframe in AWS or Transmit format, was converted to
ASCII, losing some needed characters, and was then compressed as a tar
file. The result won't unpack under Windows; unpacked files have
unacceptable directory and member names. At this point I'm not aware of
anyone who has successfully assembled any component. If you search the
internet for Wylbur, you'll find a discussion group, with membership
partly overlapping this and the IBM-MAIN groups, according to which some
people are fairly close to a zOS version. I just got my files unpacked a
few weeks ago, and will be using a REXX/Regina program to convert them
to something I can actually process under MVS 3.8j.
And please, don't try to upload the tar/tgz file - it's useless in its
current form.

How many lines of source is it (approximately) and in a few words what
was the mistranslation error? The usual stuff with braces, brackets and
such?

Theres a big problem with the stanford distribution that makes it
unusable.
Basically, when they did the ASCII<>EBCDIC translation, some characters
got
mistranslated. So, it will not assemble.
"they"?
What CCSIDs did they presume? What should it have been?
Iconv is your friend. Translate back with CCSIDs to undo what they did,
then re-translate with the correct pair.
