Vaguely.  I'll try to track down the exact reference - I'm not
sure whether your referring to the DECUS C package or not.

I seem to recall that the DECUS C compiler is written in MACRO-11 assembly -
and pretty much a straight translation of the V6/V7 C compiler - but
with different run time libraries for RSX and RT-11.  Does
this ring a bell?  Or am I completely on the wrong track?
