Summary: Ultrix "cc" still pcc-based

I'm not sure what "default" means there, but with 2.0, "cc" still gets
you a pcc-based compiler; if you say "vcc", you'll get the VAX C/Ultrix
compiler (which usually does a better job of optimizing).  There have been
numerous bug fixes since 1.2, however.

I'm not an emacs user, so I don't know the answer to the original
question.
