The official True64 support schedule is not ending before 2011, and as
far as I know CCC and friends are pretty much based on the DEC Unix
compilers. I would not expect any sources before 2011, and probably not
after that either. Releasing closed source products of that size is not
a trivial task, especially not the non-technical side including
clearance on third party rights, patents, etc.
