Actually, only a tiny handful of original C++ compilers were ever created. The 
rest are just evolved versions of them.

To list them (from memory):

Cfront (Bjarne Stroustrup)
Zortech C++ (Me)
G++ (Michael Tiemann)
Clang
Edison Design Group (Daveed Vandevorde)
Taumetric (Michael Ball)
Microsoft

There were a lot of original C compilers developed, but they pretty much all 
failed to make the transition to C++.
