It's already C++ (extension .cc and classes used). So we require 
gppXXXXb.zip anyway. gppXXXXb.zip commes with libstdcxx.a (and 
perhaps gcc-3.0 will come also with renamed libsupc++.a). So I think 
my patch doesn't introduce any new dependences beyond existing 
ones

I don't think we should consider situation one has installed C++ 
compiler and removed libstdcxx.a ...
