They mention MPE/iX alongside NT and HP-UX (in a funny sort of
non-alphabetical order) under "Binary Compatibility" :-)

   As a result of HP's co-development work with Intel on EPIC (Explicitly
   Parallel Instruction Computing), the technology foundation for IA-64,
   today's HP-UX(2), Windows NT and MPE/iX applications will run
   unchanged on IA-64. For maximum performance, customers can recompile
   applications without source changes.

Way to go, HP!
