I think the PDP-11 2.6A sources are online as "dunsrc.dsk", google it :-).

I should put it together with a Fortran compiler of the era. Fortran IV is obviously the right thing but maybe it'd compile with one of the later Fortran 77 compilers in Fortran IV backwards compatible mode. Maybe. Resulting code would probably not be as tight as the threaded stuff that Fortran IV could put out. That was always fun to disassemble!
