No, it's not validated on the VAX -- sorry if I said something
misleading.  It's validated on sun/sparc using the gcc C compiler as the
back end, and on the ADI SHARC dsp chip (cross compiler from Windows
95/NT).  If you want it ported to VAX/VMS, talk to Tucker at AverStar
(stt@averstar.com).  The main point of having a C-generating Ada
compiler is to make it easy to port -- but it's not zero work.
