A great command line option for VAXen would be the ability to do
"standard" identifier and structure-member naming.  Trying to make
something portable to any C compiler and adhering to those silly
7/8 character limit on identifiers and unique structure members is
very difficult without an ability to have your compiler act that way
too.
