G++ from FSF already exists, but this requiers a large memory and a Hard drive.

I have just purshased Lattice C Vsn 5 from HISOFT. In the manual it states that
the -C flag on the compiler will place it into compatibility mode with the
Lattice C++ front end. So could HISOFT be porting the C++ pre processor to the
ST ? I certainly hope so.
