Aren't C/C++ the only VMS languages capable of using the full 64 bit address space?
Perhaps some others are (partially) capable but it doesn't look at all convenient.
Pascal has IADDRESS64 in addition to IADDRESS but why bother to call a _64 system service when you can't really do much else with it?
