Is not MPE i/X written in MOD-CAL, a modified version of PASCAL?

[An HP person told us this several years ago--who knows, maybe they didn't
really know?]

If it were written in [almost] PASCAL, perhaps some company like IBM (after
two years of negotiations and contracts), could get the good folks at
INPRISE to sell them a copy of BORLAND's PASCAL compiler, Delphi, and then
modify the source to run on all sorts of different hardware.
