OS-9 Port

Dear all,

I need to port the gnu C++ compiler/debugger to the OS-9 real-time 
operating system (running on 68xxx targets), but I can't find any info 
on the web about others who may have done this. 

Could you tell me where I can find an up-to-date listing of 
successful ports and possibly some contacts of people who may have done
it already.  

Could you also tell me exactly what would be involved in doing the port
as I believe the OS-9 object module format is non-standard. Which gnu
site should I use to get the software, and what is needed to build
a cross compiler/debugger for Unix? 

Also, what class libraries are available (eg. streams) ?

Is all of this possible, and has it been done?

Any help would be gratefully received,
Chris Wright.

Hm.  Maybe this will help:

Did you try these newsgroups?

comp.arch.embedded
comp.realtime
comp.os.os9
comp.sys.m68k

Microware is supposed to have a WWW page at http://www.microware.com
but it doesn't seem to be working.... Their email is at 
info@microware.com

Finally, there is an OS/9 FAQ at:

OS-9 FAQ
SUB:OS-9
USE:
FTP:
WWW:
http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~pruyne/os9faq.html
MAI:Boisy G. Pitre, boisy@microware.com
REM:Remarks

Our WWW page at http://www.cera.com/faqroad.htm may also have other 
pointers which will help, such as the 68K FAQ....

Hope this helps!
