Peeked some more itnto this.

If I peek in ./nios2-linux/usr/lib/libsupc++.la I see:

# libsupc++.la - a libtool library file

...

For other platforms I see
# libsupc++.la - a libtool library file
# Generated by libtool (GNU libtool 1.3134 2009-11-29) 2.2.7a
#

...

Note the different versions of libtool and the different dependency libs
I guess the libsupc++ comes from gcc and nios2 has a very old gcc
(4.1.2), but there is no newer version (nios2 support is not
mainlined).
Anyone a suggestion?

Frans.
