I don't see any shortage of documentation on this one.

For example, chapter 1 of the FAQ tells you to use `gxx' for linking
C++ programs (`gxx' automatically includes -lstdcxx on the linker
command line)?  And section 8.9 of the FAQ explicitly says to either
use `gxx' or append -lstdcxx.  In fact, even README.1ST says to use
`gxx'.
