Try it again - I suspect it has improved a lot since then and hopefully
the few idiots around have grown up a bit since then.
I've had good success with Code::Blocks v8.02 compiling both avr-gcc and 
sdcc (Z80) source for a few projects including a FreeRTOS based app on 
an ATMega128.
Just stick to project specific make files, set C::B to use the custom 
makefile and it works like a charm.
With care it even works with 'foreign' simulators.

Nope - we can do better (and I _should_ know having picked up one or two 
of those guvmnt certificates telling everyone how I'm such a wonderful 
volunteer!)

No question - OpenOffice is NOT representative of the Opensource 
community or of volunteer effort.
