2.95.2 failure of bitset operator[]

[JDonner <jdonner at schedsys dot com>]

bitset operator[] fails in this:

#include <bitset>

int main()
{
  bitset<sizeof(int) * 8> bufWord;

  bufWord[3] = 0;
}


cd /home/jdonner/

......................

Incidentally, I have to link with -lstdc++ explicitly since messing up 
my installation (which has persisted through several complete
rebuilds).  
How can I restore gcc to linking with libstdc++ automatically?

Thanks,

Jeff
