We're using eCos & Nios w/Quartus 9.x under both Cygwin and
Linux. It also works with eCos svn head + we've tested flash 2.x
drivers for the NEEK kit. Laurentiu Cocanu has a patch coming up
for that flash part.

See http://www.ecosforge.net for our work in progress.

Both Edgar Grimberg & I who are committing to ecosforge.net
have the FSF eCos copyright assignments in order.

What's on www.ecosforge.net is essentially nios2ecos51.exe stripped
off all the junk.
