Well I was just going to make a barebones linux install in a Qemu and use it
to compile.  But if you think we might be able to get this to work, I could
work on that first.  I just tried to build it and it looks like the first
thing we would need to get rid of is 'error: template with C linkage'.  The
next would be 'error: 'operator new' takes type 'size_t' ('long unsigned
int') as first parameter'.  That first one occurs about 11k times in a build
and the second about 70.

It doesn't seem like it's too far from building, so I'll start with this and
hopefully when I move onto other stuff I won't have to mess around with a
bunch of different Qemu images.  Let me know whatever information you have
about it, Ingo, and I'll give it a shot.
