Is it still up to date? Bug has been created in 2004. I don't see Tru64 in list of available buildbots.
Do we need to care about this platform? And how to make sure what existing code works fine for that?
There's a Snakebite Tru64 box now, accessible via t5 from the sb menu. 2.7 compiles fine but hangs on some of the subprocess epipe tests, I'll set up a slave once I've addressed that.
One nice thing about Tru64 is that everything is implicitly 64-bit. There's no notion of dual 32-bit/64-bit libs/binaries or a 32-bit memory architecture. The 64-bit `python` on Tru64 is in a much better state than said binaries on AIX and HP-UX (which still need a lot of work).
As for VMS/OpenVMS, still working with HP to get access to media.
