What I did was get the GCC 2.1 binaries from the archives, and compiled gcc  
2.2.2 with that.  It turned out to work just fine.  I also hacked cccp.c to  
follow NeXT's bizzare header file format, and that also (as far as I've  
checked, which isn't too far) works fine.  Once I did that, libg++ also  
compiled fine.  So, it's tricky but not impossible.
