I've just realised that there is another native IIGS Infocom
Interpreter at the IF-Archive which will apparently run ALL infocom
games, EXCEPT the version 6 games such as Zork Zero and Shogun.

There is some information about it here:
http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/if-archive/infocom/interpreters/zip/zipgs.readme

..and the interpreter itself is here:

http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/if-archive/infocom/interpreters/zip/zipgs1.0a1.sea

In the readme file the author claims that the interpreter may be
upgraded to include version 6 games in the future (although it has now
been 4 years since the readme was written).

I'm not sure if any of this is much help to you.
