The x86 p4 probably has libstdc++ compiled statically. For libstdc++.so.5
we've been suggesting installing gcc33 to provide that library. Another
idea other distros have been implementing is making a libstdc++.so.5
package or something to provide that specific version of the c++
abi. Considering the problems we've had with the gcc 3.3 -> 3.4 upgrade
its not such a bad idea IMO.
