Just for your information I do have access to hardware and software needed
to test various units.  The university lab, in which I work, has a nice
little setup with 4 virtex 2000e chips onboard with some SRAM and an
interface to a SUN system.  On the synthesis end I use synplify pro.  

Unfortunately, like YG said, there isn't really anything to test yet.  I
have synthesised the multiplier source code just out of curiousity but
there is no point in testing an incomplete unit.

Maybe once some more VHDL code is released I will synthesis more.
