Reading this inspired us to try compiling the 'menu' debian package 
with g++-3.3. Historically this package has been very problematic on
hppa because of its use of exceptions. It's been broken for a very long
time (couple years?).... but with latest g++-3.3 it actually compiles 
and works!!

Dave, many many thanks again for all your work on gcc.
