 **June-July:** The C compiler binaries and associated utilities (as, nm, size, ld, un) on the s2-bits tap archive, with 0407-magic and using the 2nd Edition API.

 **December:** The prestruct C compiler sources. This compiler assumes a load address of 0, unlike last1120c which has 040000. This implies that the kernel now used the 11/45 memory management.
