Lattice C++ is a compilation system based on cfront 1.1.  It includes a 
version of the Lattice C compiler (4.xx).  If you have5.04, then I think
that you can buy Lattice C++ directly from Lattice for $200.  At least you 
used to be able to.  It works pretty well, but it does have the cfront 1.1
bugs.  Lattice is reportedly working on either porting cfront 2.0 or writing
a 2.0 compliant compiler.  I certainly hope they have something soon.
