In the SDK that I installed with Carbide I remember seeing binutils
and friends. So I suppose that a GCC cross compiler is being used for
building the code which means g++ is a supported compiler. Now,
assuming that the symbian os itself is built using another compiler
and the fact that g++ is binary compatible with the abi means that a
bridge to g++ should be compatible with the binaries of other
compilers. No?

Don't compilers conform to the standard c++ abi for the ARM?
(http://www.arm.com/pdfs/cppabi.pdf)

Another thing, the code produced for the winemulator target is x86
code or arm code?
