I see that prep has a gcc-vms.tar.Z, which contains a version of gcc 1.39
for VMS.  The readme files point out that this version has many advantages
over the "previous" gcc-vms distribution.  There is also a version on
rdss.ucar.edu (pointed to by /pub/gnu/etc/FTP on prep) which has the
convenient feature that it is packaged as a VMS save set.  Is this
version the same as the one on prep, or is it the "previous" version,
or something in a separate evolutionary chain?

Thanks for any info,
