    5) Has anyone ported gcc and g++ onto the Apollo? (I can get
       the distribution tapes and do it myself, but it would be
       so much more convenient to get binaries.)

I have gcc running here, but it produces a.out, which aegis doesn't
understand.  I think I can safely say that no one has gcc running
on an Apollo and generating code that is executable on an Apollo.

If you can wait, sr10 runs coff, and it may be possible to either
fix gas to produce coff (someone claims to have done this but he
doesn't answer his email) or write an a.out to coff converter.
