At one time or another, cross-assemblers in FORTRAN were coded up for 
most of the early 8-bit chips.  I believe that Intel even offered one 
as a standard product at one time.  GI certainly did--I have it 
mentioned in their product brochure.

The real problem would be locating one of these.  In all likelihood, 
one last saw existence as a stretch of 9-track 1/2" tape.
