Hmm, what about at link time to add the path to the found a used libstdc++? 
Possibly putting this rpath last after search in LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Btw, Is 
this possible in elf? I know in hpux, you can add rpath with ld +b and search 
LD_LIBRARY_PATH with ld +s, +b arguments after +s are searched only if a 
library is not found in LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

Anyway I think it makes sense for at least --version-specific-runtime-libs.
