It was an incompatibility between RHIDE and new versions of GCC.  GCC
packages now name the C++ library as `libstdcxx.a', while formerly they
were `libstdcx.a' (one x).  This makes a difference if LFN's are
enabled.  RHIDE searched for libstdcx.  It can be fixed by adding a line
to one of RHIDE's configuration files (as the FAQ explains), or by
fetching a more recent version of RHIDE where this is corrected (though
those are beta).
