VMS is a more difficult port..except that it is approaching Posix these days.
I had it far along, for Alpha. My system wasn't up to date wrt Posix features.
Linux on IA64 should be very easy.

I don't know any Mainframe OSes, would run this days, Linux. If OpenVMS has the sources for purchase, would they license freely to construct replicas, etc? The post sounds it may take it up to that point if people gets involved. Obviously IA64 is just another beast but who cares that matter right now.
