Thanks Jim for info.
For the record though,, The PHP compiler was a really nice port. However
I'm waiting to see if Python get the same treatment. What I initially saw
was some lack of support for SMNP lib's in PERL, but it turned out was
there after all. PHP however does lack a couple of libraries,, which are
probably not significant. The ALGOL compiler would be nice addition to the
set of public ports if only for historical reasons.
The other aspect of the has to do with ( "Flamers start your engines now"
) the ECLIPZ project. Rumor and speculation has it that the Micro/Milli
code from z/architecture could likely be ported to a "Cell" like chip to
either replace or supplement the current z/series mainframe. Which hints of
a "real" virtual like machine that will support many different OS's.. ala
the current Power 5/6 variants.
The reasonable explanation for is that it would lead to lower development
and manufacturing costs. A feather in IBM's cap, since it consolidates a
lot expensive hardware into a neat package.

It was probably WebSphere Developer for System z.
