This is true, for some value of "later". V5.4 sounds about
right for the cutoff.
I also only have 7MB of working memory (total of 9MB
but 2MB
are considered bad by VMS) so it may not work well with later
versions for lack of memory (not sure though).
Are you sure that VMS sees it as bad? If it just doesn't see it
at all, that could well be because you need to run AUTOGEN
(and maybe ferret out and remove a possible parameter that
is limiting the number of physical pages ]it might even be
PHYSICALPAGES]).
What does SHOW MEM say?
