>Has anybody attempted to port C++ to VMS using the VAX 11 C compiler?

I am also very interested in this question.  At least one problem with
the VMS C compiler is that the variable names it allows are somewhat 
limited in length (32 or 40 characters, I think).  Would it be possible
to write a C++ post processor that creates suitable names or is that
an enormous can of worms?
