I just tried to port aptitude to the Hurd (now that apt is finally officially in the archive), and discovered that I had removed g++ while bringing everything up-to-date a few days ago. Trying to install it revealed that only the g++ dummy package is available on the Hurd; the actual compiler (g++-2.95) doesn't appear to be ported yet.
Is this the case? (apt was built on the Hurd, so I thought there must be a working C++ compiler somewhere) If g++ is really not ported, is anyone working on this, or should I download the gcc source, start the build, and pray nothing crashes before it completes?
