Another approach, if you have anything near to a mainstream machine, is
to lobby your vendor for g++ support.  It seems silly and counterproductive
for companies to have or have access to good, well ported copies of gnu
stuff, and still force customers to figure out how to port/compile it
on their machines.  There should be good, easy ways for customers to
get already ported amd compiled versions from vendors [including the
source, of course :-]  Anon ftp, for example.
