Two things Bob:

1) Porting Dibol to x86-64 VMS does nothing to solve the problems
discussed here.

2) If Synergex have decided not to port to x86-64 VMS (based on your
comments) then it might mean they no longer have enough VMS users to
justify the port.

In that case, you are looking at moving your Dibol code over to another
platform such as Linux. This is a problem that (for example) Ada users
have had to deal with as there will not be an Ada compiler for x86-64 VMS.

Simon.
