Sulfur dioxide is nasty stuff.  It produces asthma like symptoms and can lead 
to pulmonary collapse.  I think that it is meaningful that in the entire 
existence of HC-110 no company has tried to make a true copy of it even though 
a similar formula is given in a patent.  The reason I think is the difficulty 
involved.  Ilford makes something somewhat similar but it contains water and 
has an inferior storage life.

Since Kodak designed HC-110 to gives results as close as possible to D-76 the 
latter is an obvious substitute.  The following site has some excellent 
information, http://www.covingtoninnovations.com/hc110/

To
find sulfur dioxide, just take a deep breath in any major city!  LOL!!! 
  
All
seriousness aside, it is easy to make sulfur dioxide from this:

To
find diethanolamine look here:  
http://www.chemsavers.com/search.php?search_query=diethanolamine  
  
Yes,
it is hard to find some of the proprietary Kodak dev ingredients but, though
they are often expensive, they can be found.  
  
                                    CHEERS!

Some of the
chemicals used in the Kodak patent were made by Kodak specifically for
HC-110.  For example the addition product of diethanolamine and sulfur
dioxide.  AFAIK and they are not commercially available.

You might need to order if from UK and stock up:  
   
http://www.firstcall-photographic.co.uk/products/498/kodak-hc110-film-developer-1-litre
  
   
Or work from the formula in The Film Developing Cook Book
which was derived from the patent.  You might have a heck of a time
finding and stocking some of those more esoteric reagents in the formula.  
   
                       
CHEERS!

I have been
trying to restock my HC-110 (I have about 5 ounces left). While I am not
married to this developer, it works well for my film. But I find "no
longer available" and "not in stock; don't know when it will be"
messages on mail order retailers. Another chink in the film supply/process
world.
