SAS has said, on BIX, that they are working on an SAS C++ compiler.
This will be a C++ to 68000 code compiler, not a C++ to C translator
like the current Lattice product.  No word yet on release date, or
upgrade policies.  I don't need a C++ compiler *right* *now*, so I'm
going to wait.

disclaimer:  I just read about it, so that's all I know.
