It has been suggested that I should have used binary to download
(which I did) so, just to make sure it is obvious:

emily:~/sys/DEC/DevelopmentToolkit$ ftp
ftp> o ftp.compaq.com
Connected to ftp.compaq.com.
220 ztxftppro05 Microsoft FTP Service (Version 5.0).

200 PORT command successful.

emily:~/sys/DEC/DevelopmentToolkit$ gtar xvzf DTC640.tar.gz
Compaq_C_Compiler

and then setld -l OTABASE217 fails miserably.
