The file gcc.hlp is still present, and may be bitrotten. The docs in install-old.texi and vms.texi are definitely out of date and need a thorough overhaul. The current install manual install.texi needs to say something about installing on VMS. A decision is needed about whether VAX VMS is in principle supported (albeit maybe bitrotten) or is desupported. This should probably depend on whether it can use the Unix build procedure - if no version of VAX VMS can use the Unix build procedure, VAX VMS should probably be desupported. -- Joseph S.
