I think I got the same copy/paste reply, 5 mins after raising the
support request. It is all marked as a "tentative" release schedule:
Fixed Point Packages
Questa/ModelSim supports the non-generic version of the packages
in 6.5.
Targeted release: 6.8 (requires generic type capability).
generic type
I think I've talk MGC into supporting the base packages before 6.8.
We'll see how it goes.

I have the source code for an "ieee_proposed" library (as many of the
new functions as I could). These are all work with synthesis.

Does "full VHDL-2008 support" include VHPI? Somehow, I doubt it.
Mentor for some strange reason thinks that their FLI "will work" for
this. Personally I'd rather see a real PLI that is more standard.
VHPI is included in the VHDL-2008 standard and is now _the_ PLI
standard. For a vendor to claim full VHDL-2008 support but not
implement VHPI is a total misnomer.
