 No it wasn't Comeau that did the Lattice cfront, although the name
of the company that did it escapes me at the moment (I think it started)
with an 'M'. 

 Comeau appearance on the Amiga market is not at all sudden. I had bugged
Mr. Comeau about doing an Amiga port many moons ago, before I realized
what a kludge language C++ is. He had told me that it was something they
had been thinking of for quite some time, and they would do one as soon
as they had the resources. I guess they found the resources :-).
