And, I'll bet, VMS V4.4 or V4.5...  The problem is that the VAXCRTL.EXE
image is now shipped with VMS - just like all the other RTL images for
languages (FORRTL, BASRTL, etc.) and non-language support (SMGRTL, etc...).
If you look at the title page of the VAX C Run-Time Library Reference
Manual, under "Operating System and Version", you will see that VMS V4.6
or higher is required.  THIS IS ONLY FOR THE "new" RTL routines.  The
compiler and the .H files work just fine under VMS V4.4 and V4.5 - just
stay away from the "new" RTL functions.

P.S. VMS V4.6 is expected to begin shipping to us customers next week.
