Yes. I'd guess that it's your mailer, which appears to be adding

I thought we had a Pascal compiler somewhere. Hmmm. Maybe not. I've
got one here for the PDP-11, and one from 3BSD, which may be the same
one, but nothing modern. How about GNU:
gpc is the GNU Pascal Compiler. It can be found in
ftp://kampi.hut.fi/jtv/gnu-pascal/
