   Here's a silly question: is there a C++ compiler for 16-bit (8088/286)
Minix 2.0? I looked on minix1.hampshire.edu, but didn't find anything
relevant (although I found a lot of other good stuff!)

   A slightly less silly question: does anybody know if gcc/g++ will
compile on 386 Minix 2.0? Minix is mentioned in passing as a "supported OS"
in the INSTALL files of gcc 2.8.0, but it doesn't say what version or CPU,
although being gcc it obviously has to be 386+ if it supports Intel-based
Minix at all.

   Thanks!
