Building  libstdc++.dll  may be a "hard problem" for a mathematician or
for libtool, but this is how an ordinary  person coud do  it.

dlltool --output-def libstdc++.def --export-all libstdc++.a
gcc -shared -olibstdc++.dll -Wl,--out-implib,libstdc++.dll.a \
    libstdc++.def libstdc++.a


The main problem after that is in getting rid of the need for auto-import of
data objects by marking header files appropiately.


Danny
