I spoke to someone who thinks that the new IBM compilers might not in fact
be newer releases of Microsoft products, because of a discrepency: unlike
newer releases of Microsoft compilers, they cannot compile data objects
(eg. arrays) larger than 64K. Therefore I withdraw my speculation; perhaps
these are written by IBM. Does anybody know?

P.S. It should be easy to tell; if you can read the manual, it's *not* IBM :-)
