Has anyone successfully brought C++ (any version) up under Data
General's DG/UX Unix or native AOS/VS OS? DG machines have a number
of architectural peculiarities (word-addressed, stack grows upwards,
etc), but the biggest problem is that the DG/UX ld is just a port of
the AOS/VS linker, breaking the multiple-ld invocation mechanism by
which static constructors are implemented. Please send me email if you
have made a working C++ under DG/UX or AOS/VS, or know someone who
has. Thanks.

I have completed a port of 1.2 to DG/UX, the native Unix on DG
machines. Significant and painful changes were required, mainly to
makefiles, include files, shell scripts, and the 'patch' program, but
also a few changes in cfront itself, so anyone who wants C++ on DG/UX
might want to contact me for the mods. Many of these changes may also
be useful for someone attempting a port to AOS/VS.
