Thank you to everybody replyied to my request,
including:

Dr. Tom Blinn
Alan Rollow
Richard Tame
Richie Holstein

As stated by Richie Holstein,
the "VMS Emulation and Interoperability Software (BBCBASE101)"
is a package produced by Boston Business Computing
to port some "old good" functions from VMS to OSF/1, namely:
VCL (Emulated DCL), EDT+, VMail, VBackup.

This package was only (free) part of DU v3.0 and v3.2.
This software shouldn't be anymore available from Compaq.
People still interested should address their request to the
Boston Business Computing.
 
This package is not needed if someone want to use e.g.
the EDT editor on a true VMS machine, telneting to it,
and doesn't solve function-keypad problems.


My original request was:
