I'm not sure what you mean by  "the real thing," but I HAVE written an
IF version of Waiting for Godot. It should be available at
ftp.gmd.de--it's called Modernism. Take a look if you haven't seen it. 
You'll find it as /if-archive/games/mac/Modernism.sit.hqx.
If folks would like, I can upload it as a .gam file so you can play it
on non-mac systems.

I ought to warn you--it's not much more exciting than the actual
play...
