SDL stands for something like "Structure Definition Language".  It is used
to define various system data structures in a language-independent way.  The
SDL compiler takes such definitions as input and builds equivalent definitions
in a variety of languages, FORTRAN included.

The only description of SDL I know of is in the VMS Internals book.
