About one year ago, we (Frans van Otten and Hanst Trompert) started developing
a Modula-2 compiler (this was our final graduation-project).  The compiler
is not yet finished, but we expect to have a first working version in some
months from now (at most).  We are developing it on a Sequent Balance.

It is our intention to make the compiler able to use C- and compatible
libraries, so that you can use all parallel-control C-routines.  Which
also means that 'low level modules' (such as InOut) are actually C-libraries.
