At least Debian-Linux still has the InterViews-packages in the standard 
distributions (at least in "stable" as well as in "testing")
All the packages are named "ivtools-...", so you can find binary as well 
as source-packages searching http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages for 
"ivtools". The source packages should compile with the current g++ versions.
