In the interview, he mentioned that the folks at MIT wrote the program in high-level-language called MAC (MIT Algebraic Compiler) and hand-compiled it to the machine language of the actual computer which I take is what we see at google code.

Wouldn't it be great if the MAC source would also be available for us to see? After all, that is the context in which the actual software engineering took place. Looking at the resulting assembly might give a somewhat distorted impression of how the work was done.
