There is a decompiler called "reko" that supports an impressive array of
old instruction sets and file formats.  I have occasionally suggested to
the reko developer some additions, which he quickly implemented.  Such
as recently the early 60s LINC computer and its tape file format.  So
chances are the code have will already be supported, or if not, can be
added.
