I know the creator of OpenCOMRTOS, in fact, he lives close to my place.
"The ultra small target independent Virtual Machine"
Applications:
Remote diagnostics.
Fail safe and fault tolerant control.
Processor independent programming.
Thanks to the use of OpenComRTOS, SafeVM tasks can operate system wide across
all nodes in the network. The user can also put several SafeVM tasks on the same
node. The natively running OpenComRTOS itself acts as a virtual machine for the SVM
tasks, isolating them from the underlying hardware details while providing full access.
Safe Virtual Machine for C
So, looks like we aren't in such a black and white situation.
