cpp reserved symbols

[Alan Davis]

I have been trying to compile a software package from a 3rd party which was
designed to run on various machines including VAXes.  In the C code they have
inserted #ifdef vax || #ifdef vms cpp directives (amongst others) so the code
could be ported to various machines.  I was under the impression that these
were reserved symbols that had already been defined to cpp ( 3xxx IRIS,
running 3.6).  However I have just found out that vms and vax are NOT defined,
contrary to the misleading statement in the cpp man page, which states upon
closer inspection "The current list of these possibly reserved symbols
includes:".  Does any one have a complete list of "possibly reserved symbols"
that ARE currently defined?
