To summarise broadly, only fairly old versions of LLVM will build for
IA-64 VMS. VSI have been gradually bootstrapping LLVM on x86-64 VMS using
that, with the obvious objective of a modern self-hosting LLVM on x86-64.
Once that is complete, getting Rust running on it should be reasonably
straightforward.
