Ze'ev...
Do a listidr on one of the IBM compiler modules in question it should
be easy to determine.
Offhand I would guess PLX (certainly not C) .

One more point
There is nothing really new anymore. In the olden days one would
create a compiler for a new language X and have it written in X,
but those days are no more! It seems that all new compilers are
written in C - or in Fortran, nowadays.
I wonder what are COBOL and PL/I compilers written in? Is that
still PLX or did IBM move to C as well.

To port R to z/OS Unix you will need a Fortran compiler. Although the
base language is written in C lots of R modules are written in
Fortran.

I wonder if a z/OS port of the following language would be of
interest. It might be an interesting way to get some performance
information for those of us who cannot afford SAS.

operating-system
But then again, probably not, because it does not have the ability to
read SMF data built in to it. And it doesn't run on z/OS. It does run
on both Linux and Windows. But, unlike SAS on Linux/Windows, it
cannot
direct read z/OS data via ftp, as best as I can see.
But in the off chance somebody is interested:
