- On RSX, the version number got at least as high as V2.1G. This one was
- shipped to me a few years ago under an update agreement, though I never got
- around to performing the upgrade from V2.1F. This was a decent, reliable
- compiler - in complete contrast to Digital's Pascal for RSX. That was the
- buggiest piece of DEC software that I've personally worked with (and I had
- a copy of RSTS/E BP2 V2.0, too).
