libg++ is deprecated and cannot be used with gcc-3.0.X

iostream.info is present with gcc-2.95.3 and earlier gcc versions only (in 
archive gppXXXb.zip). It is obsolete and no more present with gcc-3.0.X. Please
don't use it and get some book about C++ instead (like Stroustrup 
"C++ programming language, third edition)

gcc-3.0.X searches lang/cxx-v3 but not lang/cxx. I changed name of directory
to provide a possibility to put 2 versions (eg 2.95.3 and 3.0.4) in the same 
directory. But note that in this case some hacking is needed and it's not 
recommended for novice users
