A quick web search shows pages talking about OpenGL on VMS and Cray (although the VMS page makes references to DEC, so it's a little out of date). There was an aborted attempt to port OpenGL to the Palm pilot, they got as far as a library that could draw vertices and lines. So I think OpenGL fills your requirements. I'd be wanting to use GLUT as well, but I don't think that has travelled as far as OpenGL yet.

I agree with you that there are cross platform issues, but then there are cross platform issues involved in writing a virtual machine like parrot.

In any case, I intend to personally persue this project (and that includes writing the code myself). All I ask is that you don't dismiss it out of hand - after all, perl is supposed to make the difficult things possible :)
