I even had it running an 8080 Forth, inside Factor.

Somewhere in extra is an 8080 emulator written by Chris Double that
can even play simple game ROMs like Space Invaders.
If it has fallen out of maintenance it will be in the unmaintained
folder in the main source tree.

Doug, I see your purpose and appreciate it;
Hi Hugh,
In your book, you state that you know about the */ word in Forth,
allowing you to quickly solve the resistor problem. Why not go the
whole hog and ship a new word in every Forth implementation:

Thanks for your continued help in improving this documentation.
