Problem is, as all you who have recieved GCG 9.0 will have noticed, that
GCG is no longer distributing the source code and the library headers with
the software. As long as header files are not included in the standard
distribution it will not be possible to compile anything for GCG 9.0 unless
you purshase the GCG 9.0 SDK. 

The EGCG team has the following options to offer:

o distribution of binaries of EGCG 9.0 .
o distribution of source to all GCG 9.0 SDK licence holders.
o getting GCG to distribute the header with the standard licence (for free or
   for a small additional fee)

Ah! And note that the EGCG 8.1 sources will not compile w/ GCG 9.0. There
will be a release of EGCG 9.0.
