This is getting a bit old.  Watcom has 9.0 out now.  Symantec has another
release out (still called 3.0 'something' though), too.  I wouldn't be
surprised if the others do also...

Zortech C++ currently doesn't produce 32-bit apps under Windows.  Only 
32-bit apps for DOS (OS/2 2.0 support is rumored to be in beta).  I'm not 
sure about Watcom.
