Lattice 4.0 is in early alpha testing justr now. I suspect that there will
be a reasonable upgrade policy. It may not be a cheap upgrade policy as it
is a major upgrade of the compiler with MANY new features. Among these is
a #pragma to directly access CAOS (Commodore Amiga Operating System) rather
than use a linkage library. I have not run across any conversation regarding
a cross development version of it. (At least on bix most developers who
cross develop are roundly jeered at. But what the hey - it CAN be faster on
a 16MHz (wash my mouth out) 386 machine.)

I'd suggest you call the Lattice BBS for more information. (Else <shameless
plug> hit bix's lattice vendor support conference amiga topic and ask
jtoebes or jmeissen yourself directly.
