I don't think it was, but It's hard to say, as it's just one big binary blob to me. However, would the GEM even fit on a PDP-11?


It would not easily self host, but few of the PDP-11 compilers were asked to self host.   They started cross compiling from the 10's then from the Vaxen.    By the time PDP-11 went EOL, the cross compilers were running on Alpha (and maybe PMAX - again too man beers ago).
