Does the VMS version also use C as an intermediate langauge
or does it go to machine code directly? Another interesting
question is the debugger support. I guess that the Eiffel
debugger is ported to VMS, yet if I was starting to use Eiffel
on VMS I would appreciated if the system supportered the standard
VMS debugger as well, since I'm well acquinted with it. Also, 
it would be useful for a mixed-langauge application.
