I agree HP-UX is not as well supported as GNU/Linux.  That's probably
just because we're all volunteers, and few volunteers have access to
HP-UX, and, given the choice between improving GCC for a Free platform
and for a proprietary one, I'm sure most of us would give preference
to the Free platform.  Sorry that you were tied to proprietary
software before, and have just decided to tie yourself even more.
