I received a voicemail message from Don VanLeuven, a salesperson for Meiko
here in the US, in which he said that Meiko does NOT offer a C++ compiler
for the transputer, but that he had seen a customer use a C++ preprocessor
to produce C source that one of the C compilers for the transputer could
choke down.  Could it be that this is what you saw?  Or is it possible 
that Meiko merely hasn't taken the wraps off a shiny new C++ compiler?
I'd greatly appreciate any information that might clarify this.
