I really like this! All the small PEFs in 9.x are the bane of my
existence. A simple round-trippable disassembler (which really only
needs to support the instructions that MrC used) would be a huge help.
Of course the sources would be great. GitHub? And -- any reason dePEF
can't be compiled for a modern machine?

Sadly, it's output is not build-able (it does not place csects yet) and it only disassembles PEFs which are at the start of a data fork. It will likely take a few more months of procrastination before it actually is considered adequate by my standards.
