Hi.  I have been trying to install g++ on an Encore Multimax running Umax 4.2
(R3.3.0), without success.  Gcc works providing the standard ld and as are used
and g++ works fine for c++ programs containing only standard c library calls
(i.e. no cin, cout, etc).  When c++ specific things are added, the program 
still compiles, but the executable gives a segmentation fault immediately
when run.  This appears to me to be a consequence of using the standard ld, 
but I'm not sure.  I also tried to get coff encapsulation going for gcc,
but when converting libc.a, robotussin bombed with the following message:
robotussin: can't handle coff reloction type 020421.

Has anyone managed to make g++ work by any means under Umax 4.2?
