   In my cluster, I use a similar approach for [.VAX] and [.Alpha]
   directories to keep object and executable files generated from a
   common source for common utilities.  And then I define foreign
   commands in my login.com, picking up the appropriate binaries
   for the architecture I'm logged on to.
