In the mid-90s, SIL released PC-KIMMO v2 with an English morphological 
grammar.  It's still freely available, including source code for the 
PC-KIMMO engine:

I believe, but am not sure, that it covers some derivational morphology 
as well as inflectional (the latter of course would be pretty trivial).

PC-KIMMO uses two-level rules, i.e. there are no xfst-style "replace" 
rules.  I find two level rules nearly impossible to work with, but your 
mileage may vary :-).

There is also a web page at ACL entitled "Morphology software for English":
    http://www.aclweb.org/aclwiki/index.php?title=Morphology_software
although the title seems to be misleading.  (And PC-KIMMO is listed as 
proprietary, which is wrong.  OK, I edited it, so it's right now.)
