Quoted from Zitt:

I think the problem is MPSA42 have been near EOL (end of life) for years.

seems to be the only supplier which still has stock. It's unclear how long these will remain available.
An EOL notice was issued in 2007; but it appears it was on the old leaded part... unclear how long the new part will remain available.

Ed still has genuine MPSA42s in stock.
