   g++ is the GNU c++ compiler.  It you are running any major
distribution, they will have some sort of package for it.  Though you
probably want the latest egcs g++, since the pre-egcs ones didn't seem to
support some of the modern things too well.  Red hat, debian and most of
the big guys will probably have packages for this by now as well.
