I remember it being said that IBM didn't write that compiler itself, but instead 
they hired a firm that wrote compilers for computer manufacturers to do that; it 
was a firm whose ads I remember seeing in Computerworld, they mentioned that they 
used a stack-based technology for their compilers.

But I can't seem to find or remember the name...
