There was no libjava with 2.x compilers. There was no libobjc with 2.x
compilers. What about libstdc++?

Hmmm, I don't like maintaining two versions of a package, if 3.4 is
stable it will be the one and only current version.

Yes. You may also rename the libraries manually, of course that should
only work in case you use gcc(-3.3.3) as driver then, you need to
specify the library explicitly when linking when using gcc to link C++
objects anyway, so say now:
gcc-3.3.3 -o myc++.exe myc++file.C -lstdc++3.3.3
However I'm sure it would not work with g++ as driver to just rename the
runtime since g++ has builtin to look after libstdc++ now, therefore a
rebuild is more interesting for you.
