I had gcc 2.4.5 G++ cross compiling for VSTa when I was hacking on it a
while ago. The Vsta support is still in our G++ sources, I need to submit
the patch to the FSF, all the other GNU tools getting VSTa support out on
the net was easy.

2.6.0 definetely has bugs, but that's cause the FSF doesn't believe in
regression testing, they'd rather let net folks find the bugs. Anyway, I'll
try to make sure my VSTa patch still works, if so I can get it added to the
Net sources. :-)

I tried this, and got held up in the C libraries. Maybe 1.4 will solve
my problems. I'm working on a GCC/GDB port now to an HPPA embedded target,
I'll see if I can find alittle time to cleanup GCC/G++ and do a quicky
source release (if anyone would want one). I'd *love* to get a GDB port
working...
