Sure, everyone has a VAX.
There really is only a single established UNIX standard,
considering that /usr/group, ANSI C, and the System V Interface
Definition are in very close agreement. The other significant
UNIX variant is 4.2BSD, for which a System V compatibility package
is freely available (VAX & Gould/SEL; other ports in progress).
At the application C source code level, there is a very high degree
of portability compared for example with trying to run VMS Fortran
code on any other system.
