[gnu.g++] G++ on a VAX under VMS

I'd like to run G++ on a VAXstation 3100 under VMS. I'd appreciate
any thoughts on the feasibility of such a setup and hints on
installation from anyone who has done this before.

I'll be using this for a project, one of the specifications for which is
that the application I'll be producing must run initially on VT100 under
VMS.  Eventually, I'd like to add DECwindows compatibility, which would
allow me to put together a much nicer interface, but I still need to
allow for the possibility that some poor users will be forced to
struggle along using VT100's only.  With this in mind, I'd like to make
the screen code as modular as possible.  With this background, are there
any ideas about libraries to use for the screen coding?  Specifically,
is there anything available to interface with the windowing system?
