VM does support multiple operating systems, we have a machine running
CMS and UNIX (or rather an IBM variant). I am not on that machine as
a UNIX user so cannot say much about it.

PR1MOS (Prime computers) has a UNIX (called Primix) that runs as a subprocess
and, alledgedly, the C compilers under both O.S.'s act identically.

I believe that Primix is currently available and that the IBM UNIX is still
udergoing some testing.
