- Y'all are forgetting one important thing... well, it's partially
- my fault for never making a public announcement, but I suppose it's time.
- lcc should be able to compile g++ C output without any problems. At the
- moment there is one code generator bug. Yep, one (dealing with bit
- fields). See my public announcement shortly.
- Anyway, g++ is free. The system as a whole (g++->lcc->asm->link)
- won't be terribly fast, but big deal, it's another language.
