Richard,

The odds are good that I saw something-vms as being generated by
config.guess or recognized by configure.

When I was converting the code from  the ancient SYS_whatever stuff
to autoconf, I did my best to "keep" knowledge because I knew some folks
would be cross-compiling.

I expect that is what is going on with the comments of mine that you found.
