I believe this refers to me.  This looks like a gratuitous personal
insult, but as you've pointed out I sometimes have problems
understanding what you write.  Please clarify.

If you're talking about the VAX instruction set, you're not saying
anything particularly relevant to Ada.  You originally mentioned
this in the context of the Ada standard, implying that the VAX Ada
compiler(s) violated the Ada standard by implementing language
extensions.  Please clarify.  It might be helpful if you would
re-phrase your comments rather than repeating them.  Concrete examples
would be especially helpful.

I've nearly lost hope that this thread will lead to anything useful,
but I'm prepared to be pleasantly surprised.
