     As of version 1.36.2 (the last one I tried -- the current version
is 1.36.4), g++ worked fine on HP S300 machines, if you configure it as
"hp9k320g" (NOTE the "g" -- I don't think it makes much sense to compile
it otherwise, as you then cannot run a debugger on your code).  This
requires the use of GNU as, GNU ar, GNU ld, GNU ranlib, etc., etc..

     Exactly what problems are you having?
