WASD's DCLinabox does this on (VSI) Alpha and Itanium.

Quoted to circumvent wrapping:

Does NOT WORK under:

X86VMS$ cc/version
VSI C x86-64 V7.5-009 (GEM 50XBR) on OpenVMS x86_64 V9.2-2

Perhaps some x86 VMS infrastructure missing, DCLinabox code revision 
needed, ... ?  (Apart from this haven't delved in inner modes at all.)
