That depends on who you talk to, and how the numbers are calculated.
In general, it is good to be multi-langual.
I heard of figures like 60% Verilog in the US, but Europe is
highly embedded into VHDL (80 to 90%).
Those numbers are always disputed, and it would be interesting to see
the impact of SystemVerilog and VHDL200x, as those two upgrades bring some very
nice features to the HDLs in the area of assertions, verification, interface
defintions, better support of random numbers and other packages.

You also have to consider the market segment as
in the US FPGA and Defense market, VHDL rules
