So unless VSI are going to issue x86_64 hobbyist

I don't know but I *suspect* that HP, as it continues to focus its
efforts -- i.e. drop the proprietary stuff, go for the mass-market --
will want to get rid of as much of this "legacy baggage" as it can. So
the new company will probably get all of the work, and HP will be
happy so long as it gets some revenue from it.
As for VSI, well, they'd be suicidal /not/ to continue the hobbyist
programme. And if they're bright enough to see that VMS still has
potential, surely they're bright enough to notice that fact?
